wordcount: 1,666 warnings: she/her reader, badly written southern accent, characters may be ooc as i have not really written for them before, graves didnt betray 141, probably wrong information about army-related things
Shadow Company seems to attract lots of people with Southern accents, something that is a big shock for the (mainly) British Task Force 141.
Tumblr media
It had been quite the day. Under the request, or rather, command of Shepherd, Task Force 141 and Shadow Company were placed in the same base. This entire day was one of the days that was fully scheduled with training. Shooting, hand-to-hand, running - all of the good stuff.
Some of the men on your team were complaining about needing to share a base with 141, being all territorial and saying that those Brits didn't fit in with Shadow Company. You, however, could not be happier.
You and Simon Riley, Task Force 141's Lieutenant, have been together for a long time. Neither of you spoke of one another too often though - it would only cause distraction for the both of you. Your respective teams knew you were taken, but not exactly with who, when, or how. You were kind of glad that you weren't on the same teams. The amount of trouble (and paperwork) it would take for the relationship to work would be insane. Besides, you don't think any of your higher ups would appreciate it very much.
"Sergeant Y/L/N."
A knock on your door before it opens, your commander Philip Graves leaning against the wall. You were sat on the bed in your room, simply flipping through a book as you hum, standing up.
"Task Force invited us for a night out," he hums, "Seems that they want to party. Entire Shadow Company has been invited."
"Ah," you close the book, "Ain't that something. When are we leaving?"
"Give it about fifteen minutes. That fine with you?"
You nod, throwing the book back onto the bed before heading for your closet. Nothing too fancy - it is only a fun night out. It is going to be fun to meet the people that your boyfriend works with. After all, he literally trusts them with his life. You had not seen them too much this week, all of you being much too busy training and working out. A night to a club or bar could do you good.
After exactly fifteen minutes, Graves stands at your door again, changed into something more comfortable.
"Ready to go?"
"Course, commander."
Multiple trucks are lined up, ready for all of you guys to go in. The pub that you were planning to go to wasn't too far away, a mere 10 minute drive. You suspected that you would be the one driving back - your team could get carried away on nights out.
The pub is busy, music and chattering can be heard from meters away.
"Alright, play it nice, y'all," Philip looks at his team, nearly scolding them as if they are bad children, "Task Force 141 are our brothers. We fight with them, not against them. I don't want no fights tonight."
Some grunts can be heard as the other truck pulls up next to yours, every member of the 141 in there. The first one to get out is the captain, Price. Followed by the people you know as Gaz, Soap, and finally, Ghost. No skull balaclava on this time, but a simple, black, surgical mask. It doesn't look too out of the ordinary.
You look at him, licking your lips before nodding, a smile on your face. He does not say anything, only nodding in return as the entire group makes its way to the pub.
141 and Shadow Company don't really mix for the first half hour. You stand with Graves, talking about God knows what, while the rest are all sitting at their own tables. The tables are right next to each other, though, so that is at least one step.
"'M gonna get another drink," you nod as Graves takes a sip of his.
You had finished your glass a while back and you noticed that Ghost, who sat a few meters behind you, has also been looking at his empty glass for a while.
"Could I get another one of these, and a bourbon, please?"
With the two glasses, you walk over to the Task Force table, placing the glass in front of Ghost.
"Can't have ya without a drink, can I?"
The men look up, slightly confused, but more so surprised. Not only did they not really expect to hang out with the Shadows all too much this night, but your southern accent is a big contrast to their British ones. They, however, don't say anything about it though.
"Bourbon?"
"'Course," you nod, sipping your own glass, "Hafta make sure you stay hydrated, LT. Room for one more?"
Ghost takes the glass from you, scooting over in order to make place. It is a bit of a squeeze, but you have been closer to Simon than this. He glances at your glass for a second before sipping from his.
"Y/N, this is Price, Soap," he nods his head to the people at the table, "and Gaz. Mates, this is Y/N."
"Nice to meet ya."
Soap looks at Price for a second, but the older man discreetly shakes his head before returning to his beer. He can almost hear Soap thinking about a funny comment he could make, but he really can not be arsed to get into trouble.
"How do ye know big ol' Simon here, Y/N?"
"We go way back," you nod, "Have ya not told anyone about me, Simon?"
He only grunts, shaking his head before taking another sip of his drink. He would have, but he knows Soap will try and meddle into his personal life, something he would rather keep separated from work.
"Well, if he hasn't told ya, then I can't either. Secrets and all."
Soap lets out a laugh, shaking his head as he tries to stop his chuckles by drinking from his glass. The way you speak is so unlike he has heard before, and it is quite amusing to him.
"What's so funny, Johnny?"
"Nothing. I just think wee miss Y/N just has a very specific way of speaking."
"Wee miss?" You snort, "Real cute, Soap. How'd'ya get that name anyway?"
"It's not like Soap is a weird name," he responds, "What is your name then, bonnie? Cowboy? Yeehaw?"
"Cowboy is already taken by Graves, I fear."
"What is it then?"
"It's need to know."
It makes Soap shake his head, Price looking at him with an amused grin.
"I think Soap is just a bit confused, mate is not very good at understanding British accents already, let alone anything outside of that."
The Scot looks offended, Gaz only smirking as he shrugs.
"I hafta say that I'm happy y'all are amused," you nod, "But 'm gonna need more alcohol in my system to handle this. Sadly, I have been picked for designated driver."
You look back at the table behind you, most of the Shadows being surrounded by empty glasses, full ones in their hands. God, this is going to be a long night.
"Anyway, 'm going to smoke. Care to join?"
Simon immediately nods, standing up before guiding you outside, ignoring the curious looks from his squad mates. He is sure that Soap is going to be bugging him with questions later, so some relaxation before that would be nice.
"Did ya take your own pack?"
You pull out a cigarette, lighting it as you look over at the tall man next to you. He shakes his head. He has not had a smoke in a while, and the last pack he had got crumbled in his pocket. You inhale the smoke, holding out the cigarette to Simon who carefully takes it out of your hand. It is quiet, calm, silent. But not uncomfortable.
The cigarette gets shared between the two of you, and once it dies down, you pull another from your pocket. This time, Simon lights it, and once he inhales the smoke himself, he places the cigarette between your lips while still holding onto it. You look up at him, letting out a laugh before now inhaling it yourself.
"I missed ya, y'know?"
You had not seen him in a long time, and because most people did not know about your history, they also did not think about it. Graves knows that you and Simon are familiar, but that is where it all ends.
"Missed you too," he mumbles, his voice low and gravely.
Another cigarette bud lands next to your feet as you let out a sigh. It is a bit cold outside, but being here is just a bit better than being inside of the hot pub filled with drunk soldiers. You just hope that the rest of your team wants to leave soon.
"Sorry for my mates," Simon starts, "Soap is a bit odd sometimes."
You shake your head.
"No problem, Simon. Woulda done the same," you laugh, "Aint like I heard a Scottish accent like that before."
You rest your head on his shoulder as he wraps his arm around you, both sitting on the pavement outside. The breeze is a bit cold, but Simon is warm enough to keep you from freezing.
Ten minutes of silence pass before you clear your throat.
"Guess we hafta go back in, huh?"
He doesn't want to.
He wants to stay here, with you.
"Guess so."
Both of you stand up, your hand holding onto his as you look up at him with adoration in your eyes. You truly have missed him. He looks back down at you, the streetlight shining in his eyes, before softly pressing a kiss to your lips. God, it has been too long.
You kiss him back, of course, one hand holding his as the other is on his cheek. Maybe working with Task Force 141 is not going to be that bad after all. It is not until you pull away that Simon groans, his eyes now set on the door of the bar. In the opening stands Soap, a glass in his hand, and a real big grin on his face.
"Fuckin' hell."

Ask Answers: March 30th, 2021- Part 1
We’ve been really focused on getting the Step 3 DLC done and keeping up with asks kind of got away from me, aha. Thank you for waiting for a reply! We’re still definitely behind, but here’s a good chunk of responses!
I love Our Life so much but if the release of the step 3 dlc is in April, please don't "release" it on April 1, my poor heart can't take that prank 😭
Don’t worry! I’m horrible at pranks, haha. When we do post something specifically for April Fool’s it’s always to pretend it’s a joke when in reality it’s something we’re actually planning to do. But we don’t have anything like that arranged for this year. Any posts on April 1st will just be like normal.
Omigod, can you end the game in love with Cove but not in a relationship? My character stayed calm at the restaurant and Cove slept over at her home and I think I may have missed it. I'm delirious if I did, may never stop laughing. The children are idiots 
Haha, yes, it is possible to be in love and still not get into an actual relationship. There’s no forced ending where the two are made to confess their feelings and accept, it’s all optional/avoidable.
How can you see the new main character cut-in images? I'm not trying to be rude, but, all of my playthroughs, but I haven't seen them yet. (I know you can go through an entire game without seeing them, but I have went through multiple games.) 
It’s a bit of a spoiler to say here, but you can check out the guide we posted on Steam HERE!
Is it possible to win first place in the library quiz with Lizzy (Step 1 DLC) 
Yep, it is! Someone made a guide for the answers HERE (it’s also on Steam). We probably shouldn’t have required a perfect score to win a children quiz, but oh well, haha.
Hello!
In the future (in step 4) can you marry Cove even if you are friends? I would love to have a platonic wedding with him!
I’m afraid not. As much as he cares for the MC when they’re besties, Cove would only really want an official marriage if it’s based on romance.
Hello! I bumped into Our Life randomly last month, and it is one of the best coincidences I have ever laid on. I love how the choices and little details in the story changes throughout the game, and I'm excited to keep supporting you! I'm absolutely in love with Cove and would like to ask what keeps him to be especially interested in the MC? Other than how you can choose what fondness level you have with him, what ultimately leads him to be in sync with us? Sorry if it's a little much & thank u! 
Cove likes the MC because, regardless of the different personality traits you can give the MC, they meet him on his level, listen to him, understand him (even if you’re indifferent and not really close the MC still gets where he’s coming from), and if you’re fond/crush/love than you’re there for him. He finds the MC someone he can respect, trust, and, if they’re close, feel safe with. I’m glad you enjoyed the game!
hi there! for xoxo droplets i see the that female pronouns are used in the description, in the actual game can you change the pronouns or are they stuck as female? i'm aware the game is free, but i have a bad habit of buying dlc's before playing the game so it would be helpful to know before i spend money on it. if anything i'll save that money for more our life dlcs when they come out :D
XOXO Droplets does have a set MC. It’s the story of a specific person rather than a game about making your own story. All of our games prior to Our Life were about exploring MCs that were fully fleshed out people in their own right, so you can’t get the OL experience from what we did before. But we do plan to do more custom-style MCs going forward from here!
For the our life nsfw dlc, will you have to be in the patron to have it or  will there be another way for people who really support the game but can't pay to get it? 
I’m afraid not. We might put it up for sale somewhere other than Patreon someday (though never on Steam or Itch) since we know not everyone can use that site, but it will still cost money on any other hosting page we use. It’s unfortunately not a piece of content we can give away for free.
Hello! I finally got to play Xoxo Blood Droplets and it mentioned about a DLC coming out soon. Is it already out or are you still planning it?
We are still planning to finish it when we can, we just had to put it on hold because 2020 was a tough year and we needed to put all our focus on Our Life. There’s some of the extra DLC stories available for beta testing on the Patreon.
Is there a link to the soundtrack for Xoxo Blood Droplets? I really like the music in this game! 
That’s not available yet, but we’ll probably put it up for sale once the rest of the stories are done.
Would there be any chance for XOXO Droplets OSTs to be released in the future? (Please take my money-) 
We might! There are some things we wanna do and fix before we really start advertising XOXO Droplets things again, but hopefully it all comes together.
Why does Cove dislike Shiloh so much despite all of Shiloh's efforts to get along? I can understand his dislike for Lizzie, but why Shiloh? 
They met under bad terms (with an arranged play date he had no choice in), Shiloh’s sort of pushy himself when it comes to trying to get along, and Cove thinks he’s just kind of unusual in how he interacts/reacts with people. They don’t click, basically.
Is there a way to have your character be a tsundere? And have Cove toughened up a bit due to that? Sorry if the is a stupid question! ^^;
Maybe? The options in the game aren’t based on those types of personality tropes and I don’t know them well enough to say if you can accurately find a way to make it work with the available options. But it’s not a stupid question, I’m sure plenty of other people have considered something similar c:
do voiced names work only with their exact spelling? cause my mc is called Sophia and one of the voiced names is Soffia so i was wondering but if only works like that it's fine (sorry if i made any mistakes, english isn't my first language) 
“Voice” and “text” are separate! You can pick the “voice” you want and then type in whatever “text” you prefer. And your English is really good.
Will OL:NF be based on a season/break like the first game? Or some other type of setting? 
Our Life: Now & Forever takes place over the full course of Autumn. So, the start of school and then into the fall holiday season type of time period.
Will we ever see a jealous cove😭😭 please im begging u- 
Only in small ways, really. Sadly, I’m just not someone who enjoys jealousy in stories and therefore I don’t know how to implement it in a way that feels enjoyable. Maybe I’ll figure out a angle I can work with in future projects.
Do you have any plans with Our Life once step 4 has been released along with step 3's DLCs? 
After the Step 3 DLCs and Step 4 we’ll be releasing the Cove wedding DLC, the Derek romance DLC, and then the Baxter romance DLC. The project will likely be considered fully complete at that point.
Hello, I just needed to first of all sat how amazed I was when I discovered this game. I thought I would be disappointed by the lack of love interests, but you worked so hard to make sure Cove is the Best Boy for so many different people!! It really has been my comfort game for a while now, and I think all the different choices you allow make it the best romance game I’ve played in my life. The only problem is now my expectations for love are Cove level, and no one can live up to that. You’ve put so much consideration to make this game super inclusive and I think it’s amazing. If I can ask, for the exclusive NSFW Patreon dlc, will it only be available for the month it comes out? Or could I become a patron months later and still be able to download it. I just don’t have a job right now otherwise I would LOVE to subscribe to your Patreon and definitely will once I have the money again!! Thank you so so much for making such a lovely game that’s brought me so much joy.
&
Hiya! I'm so sorry for sounding like a complete degenerate for asking, but will the nsfw moment on patreon still be available even if i'm not a patron of the month it comes out? (e.g. i didnt pay/join the necessary tier before the moment is released) Thank you for your hard work on OL, I really connected with Cove in a way I never anticipated.
Thank you very much for such kind words! The Patreon DLC will be up for download on the Patreon indefinitely once it’s done. Just like the normal DLCs, you can pay to get it whenever you like but it won’t be up for sale until it’s finished. So take all the time you need.
Sorry to bother you guys, but there was an earlier ask detailing the OL LI's love languages and I was just wondering- Would that be for them personally, as in what they do, or the love language they enjoy receiving the most? Because I know for some people it's different for both on giving and receiving and was a bit confused, haha. Sorry for the trouble, your games are really nice!
For Cove and Derek it’s what they like to receive and what they give. For Baxter, it’s what he likes to get. What he gives is tailored to his partner. He’s flexible that way~ And it’s no trouble.
asking (and also fanning... fanboying? fangirling? fanpersoning? screw it- from a distance) anonymously because my confidence is nonexistent.
will you be doing a kickstarter for our life: now and forever? i know it's probably been asked and mentioned before, but will you be doing a kickstarter akin to the one done for our life: beginnings and always? if so, will you be doing similar tier rewards? (if you guys do so, i will [politely] throw my money at you).
now, to the fan.. personing? FAN. uhm. to the part where this anonymous agender idiot will begin to act as the fan they are.
THE GAME IS SO. SO NICE. IT'S CUSTOMIZABLE. I'M REALLY HAPPY ABOUT THAT PART. AAAAA I ALSO ENJOY THAT YOU GAVE US THE OPTION TO JUST STAY BEST FRIENDS OR SOMETHING A8DBAIHEW- AND YOU INCLUDED AROS AND ACES IN THAT SEXUALITY CHOOSING PART- aaaAAA AND YOU MADE ELIZABETH FILIPINO- THANK YOU SO SO MUCH FOR CREATING SUCH AN INCLUSIVE GAME!!!
to summarize; will you be doing a kickstarter? and thank you for creating such a nice game. i, and likely the majority if not all of those who have played the game, am thankful.
Aw, thanks <3! I’m so happy it was such a nice experience for you. We are planning on having a Kickstarter for Our Life: Now & Forever. It’ll have similar rewards to the Our Life: O&A Kickstarter, but some changes will have to be made. Like, we’ll definitely need to increase the rate for getting a voiced name. Originally it was $3USD, which was super low for how much work it really took to add in a customized piece of voice acting, aha. Live and learn.
So sorry if you've already answered this, I looked but I couldn't find anything. Is the 18+ DLC coming out alongside the Step 3 DLC, or do they have different development timelines entirely? I'm so excited for all the DLC coming out in the future, and even though the release dates aren't out, I'm already counting down the days. :)
They have different development times and will come out separately. Despite taking place in the same Step period, they’re disconnected pieces of content and making progress on one doesn’t mean the other is closer to being finished. The normal Step 3 DLC is releasing first. It’s great to hear you’re looking forward to them!
Hey!! I'm absolutely LOVING Our Life! I have been pondering on one question though, what's Cove's ethnicity, if there is a set one? Or is it something we can Headcanon? 
&
hi hi! i wanted to say first of all that i absolutely adore our life. it's one of my favourite games of 2020, and i think it was just the perfect dose of positivity we all needed, even if you didn't intend to release it during such a hectic year lol! secondly, i wanted to say: if it's alright to ask, what ethnicity is cove? :-0 and what about his parents? i was just curious about it ^^)/ thank you!!
Cove’s mom, Kyra, is white. But his dad’s, Cliff’s, race doesn’t come up and players are able to headcanon it. So Cove is half white and half whatever you prefer Cliff to be! 
hello! there was a post on the patreon where you can run your fingers down cove's chest in errands - how do you get that scene? ♥ 
That was an old mistake on my part- you can only get that scene in the Ending rather Errands. You have to leave the big family dinner at the restaurant to go into the car, be dating Cove for a while, have Cove come see you there, and then mention using your hands when Cove makes a joke about hands.
in baxter’s dlc, is there any point where you can tell him about the previous renters of the condo? 
You can talk to him about that in the normal Step 3 DLC!
—– —– —– —–
Thank you for all the interest in our games everybody :D
We released a new FAQ! It answers common questions and we’ll keep adding more to it. Please check there before sending an ask. FAQ   Also, if you prefer to just see the main posts without all the asks/reblogs, feel free to follow our side account instead: GB Patch Updates Blog

ML AU: In Another Life: NY Special
(So a few things to note, Since this takes place after the events of this version of the season 3 Finale, there are a few key differences. Fu still being guardian is one of them)
-Gabriel finds himself on the back foot, without a fixed peacock miraculous, he needs something to boost his advantage over the teens. And at the rate Nathalie has been going, he might lose her as well.
-While desperately searching the book, he caught notice of the eagle miraculous, it looked very familiar. (He comes up with his plan to go to New York to get that miraculous), well thats how he realizes his plan that is in canon. But this version is clearly more desperate. He needs to know what it can do and how to use it.
-Marinette’s class kicks but with their sock puppet show and pretty much the set up for how the class is going to America is the same. Including Miss Bustier’s reason for not going.
-Adrien is bummed because there is no way he would be able to go on the trip, not with how strict his father is. Lila tries to cheer him up, saying she couldnt go either (cause in canon reason is the same)
-Marinette states that she will try talking to Adrien’s father, she seems to have a slightly higher opinion of her, its worth a shot. “Afterall, your our sock washington.” She says with a flirty smile.
-Adrien has heart eyes over his cute girlfriend.
-Marinette and company go ready to convince Gabriel to let adrien go.
-Marinette gives a convoluted speech similar to canon, but minus the extra bits of friendship.
-Gabriel complies, saying that she convinced him.
-Marinette is over the moon and immediately texts her boyfriend who is at fencing practice the good news
-Adrien gets his butt kicked by kagami just like in canon.
-Kagami tries cheering him up by saying they could use this time to practice and she can help beat the sad out of him if he wants.
-He checks his phone and is excited. He can go on the trip!
-He tells Kagami the good news, she congratulates him. But comments she will be bored without him here to fence.
_____________________________________________________________________
-Marinette Calls Fu  and tells him about her trip to New york, and that her whole class is going.
-”Your entire class?”
-”Yes, even Adrien. Can you believe it? His father never lets him go.” She is over the moon.
-Fu notes to remember that.
-”Well dont worry about Paris. If anything happens, I will be sure to alert you and Chat noir. You will have the horse miraculous on your person.”
-”I am sure Chat noir will be able to handle things here. I will let him know I am leaving. You could use a break.”
-Fu remembers that Ladybug doesnt know that Adrien, her boyfriend, is actually Chat noir.
-”I will tell Chat noir about the departure. You enjoy your trip.”
-”Alright, if you are sure.”
___________________________________________________________________
-Fu decides to meet with chat noir.
-Fu contacts Adrien to meet him at a rooftop.
-”Ladybug wont be in paris?” Chat noir was shocked. (He was so happy to be leaving for the US with his friends and Girlfriend, he actually forgot that Ladybug is marinette and that means she wont be in Paris. And that HE wont be in paris.”
-”Right, and I have a feeling you wont be in Paris either. Your class is having a trip.”
-Adrien doesnt bother asking how he knows that. He assumes Marinette told him.
-”Wait, If Ladybug or I are not in paris...”
-”Dont worry, i will alert you both should anything happen. Ladybug has the horse miraculous on her. If she is close by, she can give you a ride, if not. Your astro form should be able to fly you back to Paris fast enough to get there.”
-Chat noir nods. He cant say he knows she will be close by. But he does know.
-Ladybug doesnt contact Chat noir about the trip, because there is no need to burden him over it.
______________________________________________________________________
-Marinette isnt late, because Adrien had G come pick her up with him.
- So they have some cute handholding as Marinette excitedly talks about going to new york.
-Once they get on the Plane, Marinette and Adrien sit next to each other. So we get Startrain 2.0. With them sleeping on the other, and being cute. No musical plane tickets.
-Alya and Nino are happy for the two of them, commenting that they are still so innocent. But they have no plans on pushing them
-Marinette and Adrien both end up needing to get up and they catch the sunset together. Cue cute almost kiss. But then Techno pirate ruins it.
-The United heroes step in to handle things just like in canon. Marinette and Adrien both internally relieved that they can relax and let other heroes handle things.
-The two enjoy a nice flight to the states
_______________________________________________________________________
-Fu may have called Marianne to help him keep an eye out in the city. She was happy to have an excuse to see fu. It was like a date for them.
-Meanwhile, Marinette and class arrive at the hotel. Aeon comments that Adrien and Marinette are perfect for eachother. Jess doesnt care.
-Chloé isnt depressed as she was in canon, so she isnt dismissive of Sabrina having fun with an american boy. In fact, she decides that she would be more positive. Trying to be the heroine ladybug said she could be. Though... being nice is hard. Alix comments that she looks constipated
-Sabrina is so happy that Chloé is supportive of her. It was a surprise change.
-Chloé was still not thrilled about rooming with Alya and Marinette. But says its fine. Alya is kind of creeped out by Chloé's more ‘Friendly’ attitude. Marinette says that they should still encourage it.
-The class sneaks out to go to the roof party. Marinette and Adrien end up in Aeon and Jess room.
-”Im marinette and this is Adrien.” “Im her boyfriend”
-Aeon is VERY happy to hear that. Jess is indifferent, but helps them both get to the roof.
-The class has fun and Hotdog dan arrives with his magical dogs of hotness.
-Marinette and Adrien have no trouble sharing the hot dog. Alya still a pro wing woman, totally gets Jess to play the song.
-Marinette is 100% down with dancing. Commenting that she remembers that dance.
-Adrien thanking Marinette for convincing his dad, and that she is so amazing. She is practically melting.
-”You’re the perfect girlfriend.”
-Marinette happy giggling and telling him he is such a cute dork.
-Yes there is a kiss under the moonlight. 
______________________________________________________________________
-Next day, the class is at the museum. Aeon knows Jess ships it too, cause she admits they are adorable. There is no need for an elaborate plan, so they dont have the class do the thing.
-Gabriel sets his plan into motion.
-Fu see’s robustus and texts Marinette. Allowing her to move. Adrien notices her sudden rush and figures there is trouble.
-Ladybug transforms in private and uses unify with the horse miraculous to make a portal to paris. Chat noir calls out to her. Which surprises her.
-”Wait, why are you in new york?”
-”Its cool, I cleared it with Fu before I left.”
-Ladybug sorta does the same thing she did in startrain and just rolls with it, just commenting how lucky he is that they were both near eachother, and that if he is leaving paris, he should tell her. Chat noir agrees.
-They get to Paris and start fighting Robustus, who they realize shouldnt be here, because Markov is in New york.
-Meanwhile, Technolizer, takes the sword and Sparrow and Uncanny Valley hear the commotion. They dont see Ladybug and Chat noir being independent, so they dont try to strike out on their own, they do the responsible thing and call for back up, Then try to fight him.
-Ladybug and Chat noir are in Paris fighting Robustus, and trying to find his weakness. But after a bit, Robustus just vanishes. Confusing the two. ladybug uses her Lucky charm to fix the damage, and then they get a portal to head back. Ladybug and Chat noir head back.  Ladybug is mad suspicious over the sudden monster that seemed like all for nothing.
-Ladybug and Chat noir arrive to see the damage to the museum. Hawkmoth had successfully snatched the Eagle necklace thanks to the distraction from Technolizer. He is able to help the villain escape from the heroes, who were having a tougher time with the beefed up villain (until Majestia got more serious)
-Ladybug telling chat noir that if there is trouble to contact her, and she would do the same. Something is up with Hawkmoth.
-Hawkmoth has the eagle miraculous. He finds out the power of the miraculous is to liberate people. Which doesnt sound as useful to hawkmoth as he would like, but he gets a plan. He reakumatizes Techno Pirate.
-The events left New york damaged, but the heroes were not angry at ladybug and Chat noir since they have NO idea why Techno pirate got an upgrade.
-Marinette and Adrien went to catch up with the class. Where a car arrives for Adrien. Commenting that he clearly made a mistake letting him come.
-Marinette didnt stand by and say nothing (since she wasnt depressed or downtroden) she told Gabriel that she should let him stay. That the heroes would protect him, and that she would be by his side.
-Adrien also sided with Marinette. Gabriel was shocked, and angry that his son would Dare disobey him (which stirs the seeds on why he would use Marinette as a tool for an akuma at a later time). Gabriel gives one more stern command but Adrien is determined to stay. (plus he wasnt bummed about everything either so that helped his confidence)
-Jess and Aeon wanted to go with the heroes to help find technolizer but Civillian Majestia and Knightowl said that they needed them to stay here to protect the tourists. Which made them want to prove themselves.
-Cue the Hawkmoth’s plan using The akuma techno pirate with the eagle miraculous.
-Jess and Aeon notice that things are going wrong. Marinette and Adrien both realize it as well and sneak out to go help.
-Aeon realizes that Chat noir and Ladybug are Adrien and Marinette (because she is tech and is immune to that glamor effect. And is of course is even MORE stoked on them. The four of them meet up and work on the plan thats the same as in canon, (using the door hero’s power)
-The fight pretty much goes the same way as in canon, and Hawkmoth is actually pissed off instead of happy that there are more miraculous. Nathalie is now worse off then before. He is now even More desperate since his plan failed.
-Majestia and Knightowl are proud of their side kicks and Jess/eagle gets to be a hero in her own right. Proving her worth. Uncanny valley is her partner.
-Uncanny valley tells them she knows who they are and that she will clear the memories so that no one will know. Jess gets the eagle miraculous. (Marinette tells Fu about this, Fu says its fine. It isnt from his miraculous box, not his jurisdiction.)
-Marinette and Adrien enjoy the rest of the trip with the class. Marinette commenting to adrien how amazing all these heroes are.
-”I think you are much more amazing Marinette.”
-Cue adrinette cuteness
-Gabriel goes back to america, angry and now so much more desperate then before

what are some roles that have been largely changed for cityrune? since you said queen was an influencer now :]
hi ty for asking me im vibrating. havent gotten to talk about this au now for three years and now that chapter 2 is like real and this time i can like........draw occasionally and i have more understanding of nuance...... [grips table] [screams]
this isnt quite what you asked but heres what's everyone from chapter 1 has been Up To with a little bit of context (and under a read more bc it got LENGTHY):
kris - professional stay at home teen (they live w/ asgore n help run the flower shop sometimes. this decision was entirely bc i dont like toriel). was wrongly diagnosed w Sudden Soul Rejection when they were incredibly young and given an experimental transplanted soul as a replacement. it works for them fine, give or take having to see gaster once a month for checkups. but sometimes the soul makes them skittish n decides they're going to sit in front of the pc and play 30 consecutive hours of a certain simulation game and not even let them drown people in the pool. if it were entirely up to them, they'd be like. passing out on the sofa to documentaries about bigfoot. or practicing cool knife tricks to impress their friends at their next tabletop meetup
- EDITED IN: the soul is kind of their friend. they are wearing a hypothetical get along shirt. most of the time, they agree on actions and things to do. tends to refer to themself + their soul as we/us which originally was just something they did in their head but they kept slipping in speech/text n just became a Thing of how they talk. switches to 'I/Me' whenever smth is wrong.
- also edited in: they believe the soul they have is their original soul bc nobody has told them otherwise. whenever theyre like 'oh yeah we think about our soul n view it as a separate entity to us like. all the time. it likes to hurt if we make too many choices it doesn't seem to like and kind of forces us to be a toned down version of what we want to be but thats just how souls are haha' and everyone is like.... 'Hey Kris That's Really Not How It Is.' theyre like. 'huh. gonna ignore that for now' - this was going to be a plot point
toriel - head of H0MEWOR1D (H01)'s department of education; kind of lost her roots as a simple math teacher as she was pushed into a lot of power she didn't even really seek out. divorced asgore over some miscommunications in their relationship; also loosely as a result of grief from asriel's death
asgore - the same. runs a lil flower/gift shop. people come in more to talk with him than to buy flowers most of the time, though
asriel Flowey - he's back in flower form, thanks to the government an accident. causes a lot of technology glitches wherever he goes, and wants revenge. isn't sure how to go about it. asriel "died" around 8 years before the story takes place and kris still misses him and refuses to even THINK about even the IDEA of calling someone their sibling after what happened, just in case it somehow happens a second time
susie - more of the same really. she spends most of her time either at grillby's (she's sort of become his assistant n helps with opening/closing. it just happened) or getting into low-stakes trouble w/ kris
noelle - she's in the city's equivalent of college and shes so tired. shes So Abysmally Tired n got kinda pushed 2 follow in her mom's footsteps. she's rarely around anymore except through text or on monsters & mages (dnd) night. (however.........she will come back w/ a long break n hang out w everyone again)
berdly - tbh i didnt even consider berdly when i made the au initially. idk what he's doing. probably in a similar situation to noelle??? canonically got kicked out of the M&M group due to clashes w/ other players but lurks in their group chat to posts memes sometimes
didnt rly think of any other of kris' classmates (+ their families) after ch1 and probably will continue to not, until chs 3-5 come out and i gotta whip up roles and histories for like. a lotta guys all of a sudden. i also forgot about noelle's parents
sans - runs a convenience store that everyone kind of thinks is a front, but also it has really cheap snacks and the local teens make a point of stopping there after school. so essentially, more of the same papyrus - similar to ut. is a very polite and sweet boy but you'll know when he's coming
grillby - he's back. he runs a bar like back in ut but the cozy vibes and weird-for-a-bar hours keep attracting kids who need parents, so half of his menu is comprised of overly sweet mocktails. usually only frequented by monsters
QC - same as usual. has a "rivalry" with grillbz but, theyre besties and have a book club
mettaton - he's real and he's back. he's similar to how he is back in ut w/ his EX body. likes to hang out at grillby's and talk to unsuspecting fans. has a show for everything
napstablook - similar to how they are in ut. helps mtt with making music sometimes. doesn't leave the house too often, but spends a lot of time posting on undernet
undyne - unfortunately. more of the same. she is a cop in the monster district. i am also upset by this but couldn't think of anything better for her
alphys - a doctor studying under dr. gaster in the hopes she'll one day take over his research. she spends most of her time as a nurse with a bigger title, though, and blocks out the weirdness of her job with anime.
gaster - weird guy. H01's top soul researcher and resident House wannabe. trying to manufacture the ultimate soul that can be controlled with simple internal switches, but so far he's only had 1 (very limited) success with a certain human. monsters just melt, and darkners just sorta......get weird... he's onto Something, though.
ralsei - lonely boy with some very strange hobbies. popular on UnderNet for poetry, baking videos, and general cryptid vibe. is the DM for the monsters & mages group (also seems to think everything is actually very fine in H01 when it is very much not)
lancer - about the same. professional Round Boy. lives w/ rouxls full time. follows susie around like a lost puppy and calls himself her "underling."
rouxls - runs a hotel/casino kind of deal where the objective Bad Guys hang out, and usually ends up doing any of the spade king's paperwork.
spade king - mafia godfather. kind of a dick. don't play cards with him
seam - works with the spade king as his right hand cat more or less because they have for a lot of years and are in that 'sunk cost fallacy' zone. thinks of retiring to a quiet life in the monster section of town like, daily
jevil - used to work with the spade king, but got imprisoned for Crimes. got weird after The Accident (separate from asriel's accident)
temmies (all) - dont really get mentioned except offhandedly but they run the monster space station. so far, are the only monsters who have ever been to space.
as far as chapter 2 goes:
yeah i dont have much so far for characters. in the original version of the au i accidentally made darkners as a whole just kinda..... not great? like all sorts of weird organized crime ties n sort of going out of their way to be A Problem to the city (not even in like. a revolution way. in a working against them but with the same goals kinda way). with the whole context it worked At The Time, bc i just had the spade king to look to as a villain, and also in this au the darkners are just trying to survive a world that ultimately was not built for them (that humans think they own, and monsters sort of... seeing this and wondering what it'll mean for them whichever one wins), but w/ new info abt how the dark world works n more guys to work with i want to kind of. edit the vibe a bit. like yea darkners will ultimately do whatever it takes to take over H01, but maybe in a better way than like. idk. all this. it doesnt have to be peaceful or anything it just has to be more adaptable as we meet more kinds of darkners
however yeah i thought up 'queen as some sort of childless mommy blogger/influencer' and that completely revived all memory i had of this au. she should be on mtt's talkshow. also she sells collectible wine glasses w/ her likeness
spamton is another one of gaster's failed soul experiments, but he hasn't melted yet, and seems............fine? sort of. so he hasn't gotten decommissioned yet. he does want to give you malware tho. hot monster singles in your area n all that
im blanking on the rest of the guys but i hope any of this was comprehensible

Dr KIM
Tumblr media
ALL MY COVERS HAVE THE NAME ‘INSOMNIAC’ BECAUSE IT WAS FROM MY OTHER ACCOUNT!!
Summary: Doyoung, the straight-forward oncologist who won’t hesitate to tell someone off struggles to admit his feelings for the fellow who is a great listener.
Pairing: doctor!doyoung x fem reader
Genre: fluff
• A oncologist, one of the best in the country
• Won’t hesitate to say what he feels to anyone including Dr Lee Donghyuck
• But fails cause Donghyuck claps back
• also cause for some reason, Doyoung can’t defeat him in A N Y T H I N G.
• “Once… just once let me win.” “Hmm, let me think about it… HAHAH SIKE YOU WERE FOOLED.”
• Part of the “handsome doctors” group
• Has the cleanest office
• Will lint roll his furniture.
• Has a mini fridge, kettle and snack stash cause he hates leaving his office unless he has too.
• “Ah hyung, let’s go get some muffins!” “Do I look like I have the energy to get some muffins?”
• Will not be scared to tell someone off especially if their being disrespectful.
• Absolutely hates it when someone looks down on others just cause they think they have power.
• “Just cause you’re his senior doesn’t give you the right to call him useless. That’s basic knowledge. Learn to respect others if you demand it so much.” *AIR HORN BLARING IN THE BACKGROUD*
• Working with him is cool cause he’s very detailed in his work
• Will want to know every symptom of every patient.
• Which kind of sucks for the residents but hey! It’s good experience to get scolded by Dr Kim once in a while.
• The rest of the guys gave him the nickname Bunny Prince because of the way he eats. Hated it at first but it grew on him.
• “Aw, is our lil’ bunny prince enjoying his carrot sticks?” he would sigh and roll his eyes. “Yes, Taeil~”
• Barely changes his hair colours like Dr Seo and Dr Moon.
• Which is why almost half the staff in the oncology department was shocked to see light brown hair.
• He lost a bet to Donghyuck… sigh
• But dyed it back to black soon after
• He did dye his hair alot when he was younger but now he sticks to black and brown.
• Favourite drink is caramel coffee.
• Loves watches.
• Idk I see him as a guy who would love collecting watches as a hobby
• Would be super proud about his collection.
• Flexing a new one by rolling up his sleeves to his elbows.
• Okay but imagine tho. Oh damn
• He also likes to collect candles.
• Would change the candles according the season
• “Ahhh, autumn mornings.”
• Loves spring time the most though
• For some reason he and Dr Lee are always bickering???
• “Yah! Stop hogging the soju.” “If you stop taking all the good chicken parts then I’ll consider giving you some.” “I swear to god Doyoung, I’ll steal your candles.” “YOU TOUCH THEM AND I’LL GIVE MIN JAE A BUCKET OF CANDY. SUFFER.” “YOU WOULDN’T DARE!” “TRY ME.”
• (Who is Min Jae you ask? Well, click on Dr. LEE to find out!)
• He’s one of the busiest among the group
• Besides him not leaving his office, he’s always with his patients or in the OR.
• He sometimes get emotionally attached to some of his patients.
• Which is sad especially since… well you’ll find out soon.
• He always visits his patients, no matter what.
• When he is free, especially if they’re young and if they’re parents aren’t around, he would stay with the patient and just talk.
• “Doctor… will I die?” the teenager asked, tears forming. Doyoung automatically grabbed his hand. “Hey, hey, I know you’re scared but you need to be strong okay? Don’t think of all the bad things and just focus and being healthy and happy. Please, stay strong.” He tightly held onto the young boy’s hand.
• The rest of the guys understand and don’t pester him as much.
• Doyoung has gone on dates before but he never really saw himself with those girls.
• Until you walked in.
• You were doing your fellowship at that hospital. You walked in slightly nervous to meet your seniors.
• You were greeted by one of the nurses, Jaemin.
• “Oh, Dr Kim is in charge around here. Have you met him before?”
• “Sort of? I’ve attended his seminars before.”
• Jaemin’s eyes widen. “That’s cool! I’ve always wanted to attend but-”
• “Jaemin, you don’t have to attend my seminars. You can come and personally see me. I have no problem with that.” You and Jaemin turned to hear to see Dr Kim leaning on one of the pillars.
• He walked to you taking big steps.
• “Welcome Dr Y/L/N. I’m Dr Kim. Nurse Na, you can go now.” Jaemin walked away, leaving you with Dr Kim.
• “Follow me.” He said. You walked behind him, staring at his shoulders.
• “Holy crap, his shoulders are so wide.” You thought.
• “Thank you, I workout as much as I can.” You face palm.
• You have the habit of accidentally saying your thoughts. Which leads you into funny situations.
• It was your first day and you were already embarrassing yourself.
• “Sorry… bad habit.” You muttered.
• You worked alongside Dr Kim, assisting him in surgeries. It’s been 5 months and you don’t know anything about him.
• He was very quiet. He would only talk to you when he had to.
• “Dr Y/L/N, we need to visit the VIP ward.” He said, quite begrudgingly.
• The VIP ward wasn’t always so bad but because of Dr Kim’s straight forward nature, he always hated visiting it because there would always be some rich guy commenting about how bad the facilities are or how he isn’t being treated good enough and he would just like to set them straight but he doesn’t want to deal with it after that.
• You don’t say much during these visits either.
• You were seeing a patient who just had a tumour removed. It was quite big but thankfully it could be fully removed.
• “Yah! You doctors really don’t know how to treat me better huh? How dare you serve me this crap. I can’t even stand the sight of it.” As he pushed the food away.
• Dr Kim sighed, “Good morning to you too, Director Choi. How are you feeling?” He looked through the charts. He then passed it to you. The patient kept on being rude to Dr Kim but all he could do was smile. You always disliked coming to this certain patient.
• “Awful! Dreadful! You don’t even realise, my money is going to your salaries! Me being here is the reason you’ll be able to find food this week. I demand for better food.” He whined like a child after a tantrum.
• Jeez, I wish the anaesthesiologist had increased the dose. He won’t shut up.
• Doyoung looked at you wide eyed. Nurse Zhong and Na had to hold in their laughter.
• “HAHAH SHIT IM SCREWED I DID IT AGAIN DIDNT I?” you actually thought this time.
• “EXCUSE ME? DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM? I’M THE DIRECTOR OF-”
• “And? Look, sir I know who you are.” You have had enough of this guy. “But bare in mind, this doctor you keep insulting sort of gave you a longer life span. If he did-”
• “Dr Y/L/N.” Dr Kim said sternly.
• “Don’t interrupt me. As I was saying, you’re in a hospital. Not a hotel. I’m sorry the food isn’t up to par with your exquisite palate but that’s all we have. We wouldn’t want you to starve now, would we? At your age, you shouldn’t be so angry all the time. It’s not good for you. So, I’d advise you to stop being so rude and start being nicer to those who are helping you.”
• Everyone in the room looked at you with their mouths hanging.
• “Is that all? Well Nurse Na, Nurse Zhong please check on him hourly. Keep giving the same meds. Call me or Dr Kim if you notice anything strange. Thank you and have a nice day.” You walked out.
• You quickly walked towards the elevator before you felt a hand tug you sharply.
• You were pushed against the wall with his hands caging you.
• (CUE CHEESY KOREAN MUSIC)
• “Care to explain what just happened? You just risked the entire oncology department and your job here, I deserve to know why you were so reckless.” He said. You winced at the sharp tone.
• “Gladly. He was being rude, I told him off. That’s all.” You tried to escape but he wasn’t letting you.
• “Dr Y/L/N, if you take one more step I won’t hesitate to-” you could see he was stressed.
• “Dr Kim, I don’t think you realised what just happened. You were insulted by a patient for something you have no control over. You always stand up for the bullied but why won’t you let someone do that for you? Why won’t you say anything? Cause he’s rich? Money can only bring us so far, in the end it’s nothing but paper we humans are all obsessed with.”
• He stared at you. He didn’t know how to reply, he barely knew you but it seemed like he was looking at someone he’s known for years. His hands slowly fell to his sides and he took a step back.
• “Now, if you’ll excuse me I have a phone call to make.”
• Even with that powerful speech you just made, you freaked the hell out and called for your mom.
• “Mom, I think I might get fired.” “BEHSHSHS SWEETIE WHAT’S WRONG?” you began to cry and explain to her what happened.
• News spread fast and before you knew it, people stared at you left and right.
• You were having lunch with Dr Jung and Dr Dong.
• “Y/N, you’ve been quite the topic for the last week.” Sicheng popped a grape into his mouth.
• You groaned. Dr Kim avoided you even more now, replying dryly when you asked him things.
• You hit your head onto the table and made an incoherent noise.
• “Is she okay?” Johnny sat beside you.
• “The gossip is getting to her.” Sicheng explained. Johnny pat your head, “Poor Y/N.” He cooed.
• “Dr Kim probably hates me now.” You say. Yuta suddenly appeared beside you.
• “Doyoung? Nahh. He was just shocked that you had it in you.” Yuta pulled a chair and placed his tray down.
• You sat up. “Huh?”
• “Well, Doyoung has been wanting to shut that old geezer up but he was scared. When you did it, he was in a mix of relieved and worried. He was worried that the oncology department would get into trouble and that you might lose your job.” Jaehyun told.
• “Then explain why he’s been avoiding me.” You grumbled.
• “Probably cause he doesn’t know how to talk to you. Especially after what you said to him.” Sicheng piped in.
• “He told you what I said?” they all nod. “He didn’t realise it himself but after you smacked him with facts, it kind of dawned onto him.”
• “Y/N, why don’t you try approaching him?” Johnny suggested. “Look, he may seem cold and distant but he’s actually a very emotional person. He’s just really awkward especially around girls.”
• “No way.” You said. “I’m not joking. Seriously after Soo-” Jaehyun tuts.
• “What? Who?” you asked. Jaehyun eyed the rest of them. “We shouldn’t. Maybe Doyoung would tell you if he wants to.”
• You nod and left the group to put your plate.
• “Seriously Johnny, Doyoung told us not to tell anyone about Soo Young. Nobody knows but us and the girls.” Jaehyun said. You continued to hear them but decided to leave.
• (Yeah, this happened after the other guys had girlfriends/wives. Read the others here!)
• You walked past the cafe when you thought of something.
• You knocked on his office door and waited for him to allow you to come in.
• “Come in.” You heard. When you opened the door, his eyes was on his laptop. His tie was loosened and his sleeves were rolled to his elbows. A beautiful Mont Blanc adorning his wrist.
• “Dr Kim?” he looked up and you saw his eyes widen a bit.
• “What is it?” he said tiredly
• You slid the caramel coffee and peach cookies to him.
• He eyed them and raised an eyebrow.
• “I get why you’re probably avoiding me. It was totally unprofessional of me to say that to a patient and I know it risked the department and you. But this isn’t a apology because I’m not sorry for what I did. It had to be done.” You said. You didn’t know if that was the suitable thing to say but it felt right.
• “Y/N…” you looked up. That was the first time he called you by your first name.
• “You have no idea how happy I was when you got him to shut up.” He took a cookie and bit into it. He gave you one and you ate it quietly. You avoided eye contact and saw his wrist watch.
• “That’s a nice Mont Blanc by the way. Mont Blanc Bohème, right?” you asked. He looked at you, quite surprised.
• “Yeah it is. How did you know?” “Well, my dad collected watches and this was his favourite.” “Funny, this is my favourite too.” You both sat quietly, avoiding eye contact.
• “Look, I know I may seem… cold but I’m just not used to having friends of the opposite gender. I’m still a bit awkward with the other guys girlfriends. I wanted to try to be friends with you but I didn’t know where to start.” He said. You smiled. You dust off any crumbs on your hands and stretched out your hand.
• “Well, hi. I’m Y/N Y/L/N. Nice to meet you.” He chuckled and grabbed your hand. He shook it, flashing a gummy smile. “I’m Kim Doyoung. Nice to meet you too.”
• That was when your friendship began.
• “Doyoung, let’s gooo.” “Y/N, give me a few minutes. I’m arranging my candles.” “OH I WANNA HELP!”
• You often saw his gummy smile
• you also understood why the guys called him Bunny Prince.
• “DOYOUNG YOU REALLY ARE A BUNNY! YOU LOOK SO CUTE WHEN YOU EAT.” “Yes, Y/N, I think we established that.” He said.
• You two became the best of buds.
• His mom LOVES YOU. SHE’S ALWAYS ASKING ABOUT YOU AND GIVING YOU FOOD.
• “Son, give this to Y/N. I’m worried she isn’t eating enough.” “Hey mom, how about me? Y'know, YOUR SON???”
• But your mom loves him too.
• “Aigoo, what a handsome boy Doyoung is! Y/N, you got lucky.” “MOM DHDHDHSHSH.”
• Johnny was right, Doyoung is very emotional.
• Sometimes, you’d sit together and he’d tell you what happened. His head on your shoulder as you played with his hair.
• “This old lady I operated on, her granddaughter came today.” You hum. “She came to tell me that her grandmother passed away.” You breathed in, you could feel the sadness radiating off of him. You felt a tear drop onto your hand. You wiped the tears that stained his cheek.
• “She… she- even after she recovered, she visited me and she would tell me how happy she was. She’d come with homemade rice cakes and she’d always tell me to find a girlfriend.” He chuckled. You continued to stroke his hair, trying to calm him down.
• “Thank you for always listening Y/N.” He sniffled. “Sometimes, I just want someone to listen me. I don’t want advice or help. I just want to let it out.” You smiled at him.
• You’d also go to him when you’re having a rough day. Doyoung would always ask “Do you want me to listen or do you want my advice?” and usually you’d ask for advice.
• Both of you usually seeked out for each other during rough times.
• Usually, Doyoung just wants to be heard.
• As much as he didn’t want to admit it, he did start to have feelings for you.
• Doyoung struggled with his feelings alot but he really couldn’t ignore the ones he had for you.
• He didn’t have to act differently with you. When he went on those dates he felt like he had to act a certain way but with you, he was himself. He also loved how true you were and how you believed that there is no such thing as being greater than others. You also stood up for others.
• On a fine spring day, you were walking around. Looking for Doyoung.
• “Hey, Taeyong have you seen Doyoung?” he thought about it before he let out an ‘Ahhh’.
• “He’s coming back soon, don’t worry. Today is pretty important for him.” He left you.
• You went on with your day, constantly checking for the time.
• Since today was an important day for him, you didn’t want to bother him. So you didn’t call or message him.
• The sky was turning a beautiful orange when you walked into doctors room to take a nap.
• You twisted the doorknob when you saw Doyoung sitting on the bed… in a suit?
• “Oh hey, I was wondering where you went.” You happily said.
• When you got closer only did you realise his bloodshot eyes and his red nose.
• “Doyoung? Is everything okay?” you stood in front of him. He pulled you down and hugged you, both of you now lying down in bed.
• He began to sob and his grip on you tighten. You rubbed circles on his back, letting him cry everything out.
• You both eventually took a nap together.
• When you woke up, you were confused about the tight grip on your waist.
• You turn around to face Doyoung. You pushed some of his hair away from his face.
• “Today… is the anniversary for a patient of mine, Soo Young.”
• Your mind went back to the time Johnny nearly told you before Jaehyun stopped him.
• You listened attentively.
• “Scratch that, she wasn’t just a patient. She was… my first love.”
• “She had a tumour in her brain. I remembered, I stayed with her on some days because she was alone. At first, I saw her as any other patient until…”
• Flashback
• “Hey, hey. It’s just a nightmare, you’re okay.” Doyoung said. Soo Young grabbed his hand. “Please… stay with me.”
• Many weeks pass and the doctors were still monitoring her. Both of them had created a beautiful bond. He’d visit her during his breaks and she’d ask him about his day.
• “Dr Kim, come have some strawberries!” she fed him some and he loved seeing her healthy again. “Soo Young… y'know you’ll be able to leave soon right?” he asked. She excitedly nod. “Yes! Oh, I’m so excited to see my room and my dog again.” She cheered. Her innocence was what captivated Doyoung. He wanted to protect her from the evil of this world.
• “Should I wear a wig or something?” “Why?” “I’m… I’m scared of the girls at my neighbourhood. They used to call me names.” Doyoung quickly stroked her cheek. “You’re so beautiful and kind, those bullies are missing out on an amazing person.” She smiled so wide and gave him a hug.
• “Doctor, can we still see each other even after I leave?” she asked shyly. He held her hand and she looked up at him. “Of course.” She squealed and gave him a hug.
• 6 months later, and they were happy together. Soo Young was still visiting the hospital for her check ups.
• “Doyoung~” “Yes my princess?” he asked, he watched the love of his life happily eat her sandwich.
• “I have to tell you something.” He hummed, waiting for her. “I’m very happy that… I didn’t die because of the tumour.” He was shocked. “Yah! Don’t stay stuff like that.” She giggled.
• “No, no listen to me. I’m happy that I didn’t lose my youth to cancer. I’m happy that I got to be with you. I hope we can be together forever.” She held onto his hand, her big eyes was filled with love.
• “I’m happy too, princess.” She smiled happily. “Well, I have to get back to work. I’ll see you tonight, okay?” he looked at his watch.
• “Oh, okay.” He got up and quickly walked away, worried he’ll be late. He was in the elevator when he heard her call.
• “Doyoung, I love you!” she did a heart above her head. He nodded quickly and the elevator shut.
• He had an amazing mood, he even visited the emergency ward to see Johnny that evening.
• “Ah, what brings you here Dr Kim?” he teasingly asked. “What, I can’t see my best friend?” they both laughed, before Johnny’s phone rang.
• He picked it up and before he knew it, his smile turned into a worried frown.
• “What?” Doyoung raised a brow.
• “It’s another drunk driver.” Johnny’s attention quickly went to the sound of the ambulance siren going off. Doyoung waited for the patient, wondering what happened.
• The ambulance arrived and the stretcher rolled down the hall. Johnny was giving orders.
• “She was hit by a drunk driver. Her name is Park Soo Young. Please call her guardians.” At the sound of this, Doyoung’s head snapped back so fast.
• “Soo… Soo Young?” he ran to the stretcher.
• Blood was covering her entire body. Her body limp and clearly struggling to hold on.
• “She’s lost a lot of blood. We need to hurry.” Johnny said to the residents.
• Doyoung followed them behind, Mark pulled him back.
• “Doyoung, you can’t-” Mark tried to hold him back. “LET ME GO, MARK. PLEASE LET ME GO.” he saw Johnny and the rest trying to bring her back. The defibrillator at work. Increasing as time goes by.
• “SOO YOUNG! SOO YOUNG!” Doyoung was crying her name.
• The sound of a long beep caused his heart to shatter.
• “No… no. She can’t be..”
• “Park Soo Young. Time of death, 9:30 pm.” Johnny sadly took off his mask.
• Doyoung couldn’t comprehend it, the noises around him were blurred and movements were slowed down.
• Before it hit him, his chest was clenching and tears began to fall.
• Johnny had gone out of the room and hugged Doyoung. Doyoung cried, violently shaking.
• “I… I didn’t even say it. I DIDN’T TELL HER I LOVED HER. I… I….” He cried into his best friend’s shoulder.
• Ever since then… Doyoung had felt numb. Like a part of him was missing.
• “That’s what happened.” He told. You didn’t know how to reply.
• “She… she was happy she wasn’t going to die young.” He sniffled.
• You and him stayed in that position until you both decided it was time to get up. You both sat down quietly. “I’m okay now though.” You smiled at him.
• “Doyoung, I don’t know what you’re going through right now but just know, I’ll be here for you. Always.”
• You also had feelings for him but you were scared. Scared of rejection. His squeal when he gets his favourite foods or his little pout when you bother him. The way his laugh warms your heart and how his smile could light up your world.
• “Doyoung, I…” he turned around. “I’m going to go check on Mrs Park.” You quickly got up.
• After the time he told you about Soo Young, you’ve been avoiding him like the plague.
• BECAUSE EVERY SINGLE TIME YOU SEE HIM YOU WANT TO CONFESS YOUR LOVE AND YOU AREN’T READY.
• HE’S SUPER SAD AND CONFUSED LIKE WHY IS SHE AVOIDING ME??? Y/N WHY YOU AVOIDING HIM???
• “now is not the time Y/N, just focus on your work and tell Doyoung later.”
• “Tell me what later?” he scared you. You jumped and screamed a little.
• “Uh, nothing.”
• “Well, tell me why you’re avoiding me then?” he booped your nose.
• “Oh… uh… well I just… HNGGGG.” You plop onto the floor and he panicked a little.
• “Uhm, Y/N I love you but can you not sit in the middle of the way?” you look at him with wide eyes.
• “YoU- HSVAHS HOW DID YOU SAY THAT SO EASILY???” he looked at you confused.
• “FOR THE PAST FEW WEEKS I’VE BEEN TRYING TO SAY THAT TO YOU BUT I CAN’T.”
• “What word?” “THAT THAT WORD.” “WHAT WORD??” “I LOVE YOU!”
• The entire floor stopped and went quiet. All eyes on you.
• “What?” “I… I love you Kim Doyoung. I know you can never love me like how you loved Soo Young but just know that… you have my heart.”
• You got up to leave and you were walking away, slightly teary eyed.
• “Yah!” he pulled your hand. You turned around so fast and before you knew it, his lips were on yours.
• His soft lips moved against yours as you kissed back. The sound of cheers and clapping around you.
• When he separated from you, he looked at you with a smile.
• “Yes, I couldn’t love you like how I loved Soo Young but I love you too. Alot. Alot more than you think.” You grinned at his cheesy comment and kissed him back.
• “Stop being so cute and kiss me already.” “My pleasure.” He said as he kissed you again, you both smiling into the kiss.
Hello~ did you guys like it? I don’t actually know how the medical world works, I only know the basics. I deeply apologize if there are mistakes. I also apologise if I’ve offended anyone in any way.

omg not me missing three updates 😰 lemme try n put all my thoughts into one ask.. might be a long one 🥴
but not namjoon losing his cool immediately entering the party and his eyes looking for her LMAOOO no wonder why his friends come for his throat 😭 he just makes it too damn obvious 💀
i could be reaching but could yoongi be someone that yn could confine in comfortably without bias?? idk just based on the small interaction we saw between the two of them at the bar.. cause since he’s not a part of her inner circle but they seem comfortable enough with each other to talk about some things?? but then namjoon talks to yoongi a lot so maybe im making nothing into something for no reason..
but her dad.. he sucks ass like damn he really made sure she’s never gonna leave the music industry when she wants no part in it. i can see why yn is “self-sabotaging” her position but not the part where it comes at the expense of other peoples livlihood.. also hoseok lives and breathes music, he loves what he does and is capable of running things himself.. so why does he need both his kids?? what gives bruh..
omg NOT JOON JUST GOING FOR THE KISS OMFGSNSNDJSNWJ WHAT the no warnings was a lie.. rude 🤧 BUT YIKES AFTER THAT 😳 so much is happening rn my minds going ↘️↗️⬆️🔄↪️⬇️
namjoon what happened to not giving a shit about her bruv.. at least youre not lying to yourself not liking her but you do be still lying to yourself sometimes.. but!! i do understand way he reacted the way he did afterwards.. like kissing someone who’s in a “relationship” and that same person being his boss, career on the line if things got out of hand bc he just got signed and hadnt debuted under the new company yet..
although it was kinda like cold water was thrown at yn tho bc 😬 is this the first time that an encounter like this didnt lead to something more for her?? like someone didnt take the risk with her?? or is she seeing this as a flat out rejection?? bc namjoon finally showed some sort of interest and when he caved, he immediately backed out..
wait is she back to her normal self after the lunch with namjoon?? ong this is what i get for catching up and absorbing too much information at once 😩 -🤼‍♀️
ahhh!! hi ., we’ve got a lot to get through lmao . 
namjoon is so absolutely full of shit lmao ., the first thing he did was look for her nd then he continued to do that for the entire night . nd literally all it took was her taking a little bit of her attention off of him (she had started being more professional a bit before the party) ., now the boy has no idea what to do w himself . 
// yn would definitely be able to take more freely around yoongi ., buut it’s not so much because of the fact that he’s not in her friend group - it’s more so that yoongi really doesn’t care abt things that don’t directly involve him ., so instead of trying to tell her how to do things nd kind of taking control of the situation ., he’d be more inclined to listen to her nd give her light suggestions that he thinks is in her best interest - without being pushy . (jin nd jungkook just let her do whatever assuming she’ll figure it out ., while hobi is more often than not giving orders) . //
at this point ., yn cares so little for the job nd is willing to do anything to keep from having to stay there that she’s not even thinking abt the other people that are effected by her behavior . at least not in the moment ., there’s a lot of times where she goes back nd realizes that she’s wrong (the thing w hyungwon in the studio being one example) . but most of the time it’s like collateral damage bc she’s so unhappy ., she can’t really look past that . 
// it’s safe to say that joon was always somewhat curious abt her ., but didn’t really let himself get close . but then after she was getting in trouble because of him nd then working a bit harder he started to see her differently . nd then on top of that she was opening up to him at the party so he’s seeing more sides of her that sort of eliminates what he first thought of her . he’s starting to understand her a bit more nd slowly (very slowly) accepting that he might be a little bit interested . which was amplified w alcohol of course ., so that’s where the sudden kiss is coming from . 
- as soon as they’re being interrupted ., he has enough time to overthink so he’s quickly reverting back to how he was before . 
+ yn is very much stuck on being wanted ., the little story abt how she knows hr dad never wanted a girl - in turn never wanted her ., has a lot to do w it . so the sad way she asks joon if he didn’t want to kiss her is like a peak into that ., she likes to feel wanted (the multiple boyfriends thing could kinda fall into that too) ., so she was more put off by the thought that joon doesn’t want her when she wants him (nd she’s slowly realizing it’s more than the greedy want she has w her boyfriends) . 
since the thing w hyungwon ., she has done nothing but work nd concentrate on getting her work done - so the little trip out w namjoon might’ve helped her loosen up ., but she’s still got a lot going on . she’s not going to be one hundred percent until she’s able to deal w her dad nd break away from that job .

Tumblr media
ariana  grande  .  cisfemale  .  she&her  .  /  martina  bianco  just  pulled  up  blasting  929  by  halsey   —  that  song  is  so  them  !  you know  ,  for  a  twenty  five  year  old  singer  ,  i’ve  heard  they’re  really  impetuous  ,  but  that  they  make  up  for  it  by  being  so  sociable  .  if  i  had  to  choose  three  things  to  describe  them  ,  i’d  probably  say  old  band  t-shirts  ,  high  ponytail  &  dirty  sneakers  .  here’s  to  hoping  they  don’t  cause  too  much  trouble  ! 
𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐓𝐒  :
𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐞  :  martina bianco  . 𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐞  :  martie  exclusively  .  please  call  her  martie  she  will  not  answer  if  u  call  her  anything  else  or  maybe  she’ll  just  cry  abt  it  . 𝐚𝐠𝐞  :  twenty  five  . 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧  :  singer  /  songwriter  . 𝐬𝐞𝐱𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲  :  closeted  bisexual  /  biromantic  . 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞  𝐨𝐟  𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡  :  newark  ,  nj  . 𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭  𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞  :  los  angeles  ,  ca  /  new  york  city  ,  ny  . 𝐯𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞  𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐦  :  ariana  grande  . 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲  𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐬  :  sociable  ,  sincere  ,  clueless  ,  impulsive  ,  unbothered  ,  insecure  ,  funloving  ,  creative  ,  unsure  ,  adventurous  .
𝐁𝐀𝐂𝐊𝐆𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐃  :
martie  is  the  only  daughter  out  of  five  kids  ,  and  she  was  born  to  a  traditionally  italian  family  ,  from  both  her  parents’  sides  .  they  weren’t  rich  but  lived  comfortably  ,  and  had  a  really  big  family  in  general  .  holidays  and  birthdays  were  always  huge  in  her  family  ,  and  there  was  usually  a  funny  argument  that  ended  with  the  grandmas  spraying  everyone  with  a  water  hose  .  her  parents  weren’t  very  happy  together  ,  but  tried  their  best  to  work  through  their  problems  and  not  divorce  ,  since  they  were  very  much  christians  and  didn’t  really  believe  in  separation  .  they  did  eventually  divorce  though  ,  but  only  pretty  later  on  in  martie’s  life  .
considering  she  only  had  brothers  and  her  mother  worked  long  hours  ,  martie  didn’t  have  a  lot  of  female  influences  in  her  life  ,  so  she  grew  up  pretty  unconcerned  about  more  feminine  matters  ,  not  because  she  disliked  it  but  she  was  just  clueless to  it  .  when  she  grew  older  ,  she  got  a  lot  more  into  makeup  ,  but  fashion  still  isn’t  her  thing  .  nowadays  ,  she  has  a  personal  stylist  ,  but  when  she  dresses  herself  ,  martie  usually  ends  up  in  dirty  sneakers  and  ripped  t-shirts  .  
so  ,  growing  up  ,  considering  martie  wasnt  too  interested  in  most  of  her  brothers  hobbies  ,  she  had  to  find  herself  something  to  do  .  she  tried  a  great  many  deal  of  things  ,  and  ended  up  discovering  she  loved  music  ,  writing  song  lyrics  ,  playing  musical  instruments  ,  and  singing  .  considering  she  was  pretty  good  at  it  ,  her  parents  supported  her  wishes  and  paid  for  singing  lessons  &  bought  her  a  bunch  of  instruments  and  all  of  that  .
[  HOMOPHOBIA  /  BIPHOBIA  TW  ]  so   she  was  pretty  happy  and  chill  for  her  late  childhood   &  early  teens  ,  contrary  to  some  of  her  brothers  ,  martie  didnt  get  in  trouble  with  teachers  and  was  a  reasonably  good  student  ,  so  they  never  worried  about  her  while  she  was  growing  up  .  that  pretty  much  all  changed  when  martie  not  only  came  out  as  bisexual  to  her  family  but  also  told  them  she  was  actually  in  a  relationship  a  girl  .  her  family  was  very  religious  so  it  didn’t  surprise  her  when  her  mother  cried  for  days  &  was  clearly  disappointed  ,  but  her  dad  raged  and  screamed  and  threatened  her  with  all  kinds  of  punishments  if  she  didn’t  end  her  relationship  and  never  talked  about  her  sexuality  again  instead  ,   and  his  behaviour  made  her  feel  so  scared  that  she  did  end  up  breaking  up  with  her  first  girlfriend  and  didn’t  touch  the  subject  of  her  sexuality  for  many many  years  after  that  .  [  END  OF  TW  ]
it  caused  a  huge  shift  in  her  family  dynamics  ,  unsurprisingly  .  martie  felt  like  she  didnt  have  a  choice  but  to  hide  ,  and  she  really  resented  her  father  for  forcing  that  on  her  &  the  rest  of  the  family  for  giving  her  almost  no  support  .  her  brothers  tried  their  best  ,  but  it  was  really  hard  for  all  of  them  to  stand  up  to  their  father  .  so  she  focused  a  lot  on  her  music  ,  because  by  then  she  was  sure  that  it  was  her  way  out  of  that  environment  that  was  hurting  her  so  much  .
she  was  picked  up  by  a  label  when  she  was  19  ,  and  left  her  home  in  newark  as  soon  as  she  could  .  choosing  to  stay  with  new  friends  and  acquaintances  as  she  worked  her  way  into  the  music  industry  .  after  being  featured  in  a  few  other  artist’s  songs  &  having  a  first  single  to  become  a  smash  hit  (  side  to  side  )  ,  martie  released  dangerous  woman  ,  her  first  album  that  climbed  steadily  up  the  charts  until  she  was  basically  everywhere  .  it  was  a  very  sudden  change  of  environment  but  she  was  very  happy  about  it  ,  at  least  she  wasnt  stuck  around  her  dad  anymore  .
however  ,  she  is  still  just  as  stuck  as  she  was  back  in  her  hometown  ,  since  once  she  blew  up  ,  her  label  &  management  thought  it  would  also  be  a  good  idea  to  hide  her  sexuality  ,  at  least  until  she  was  more  ‘established’  in  the  industry  .  newsflash  ,  its  been  five  years  and  they  still  wont  let  her  come  out  about  it  .  she’s  definitely  growing  impatient  ,  though  ,  so  that’s  not  something  that’s  gonna  be  a  secret  for  too  long  probably  .  still   ,  there’s  not  a  lot  of  ppl  who  know  abt  her  sexuality  out  there  so  far  .
so  ,  in  the  five  years  she’s  been  famous  ,  martie  kept  in  contact  with  a  few  family  members  ,  but  definitely  not  her  dad  .  her  parents  divorced  a  couple  of  years  after  she  left  ,  and  her  mom  decided  to  make  more  of  an  effort  to  be  around  her  &  get  over  her  prejudice  to  support  martie’s  choices  ,  which  helped  heal  their  relationship  in  ways  martie  didnt  really  expect  .
considering  the  career  she  has  now  ,  martie  has  managed  to  keep  a  relatively  unproblematic  image  on  the  media  .  she’s  had  her  controversial  moments  for  sure  ,  and  there  are  definitely  reasons  for  people  to  dislike  her  ,  but  mostly  she  gets  away  unscathed  by  fans  ,  the  media  does  have  a  field  trip  coming  up  w  untrue  headlines  about  her  tho  .
𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐎𝐍𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐘  :
okay  so  ,  martie  is  kinda  like  a  not  so  big  kid  still  ?  she’s  never  had  to  actually  be  by  herself  her  entire  life  ,  so  adulting  is  something  she  has  a  certain  difficulty  doing  .  she’s  very  unbothered  about  life  in  general  ,  so  something  really  worrying  that  mostly  everyone  would  freak  out  about will  rarely  ever  bother  her  .  but  ,  she  will  freak  out  for  three  days  if  she  gets  asked  to  pay  her  own  bills  or  something  as  mundane  .  
she  also  kinda  lives  in  her  own  little  world  ,  and  in  a  way  ,  she  can  be  very  confident  in  the  aspect  of  not  really  bothering  about  almost  anyone’s  opinions  about  her  &  her  actions  ,  if  she  wants  to  do  something  that  will  make  her  happy  ,  she  won’t  really  think  about  it  before  doing  so  ,  so  she’s  kinda  reckless in  that  way  .  but  she  also  doubts  herself  very  much  when  it  comes  to  self  worth  &  like  things  related  to  her  actual  personality  .  we  love  multifaceted  muses  am i  right ?  lmao
martie  is  great  to  make  friends  with  ,  she  will  pretty  much  get  along  with  everyone  ?  is  a  super  social  being  ,  loves  being  surrounded  by  people  ,  probably  has  a  bunch  of  her  friends  living  with  her because  she  just  doesn’t  like  being  alone  .  
loves  working  !  spends  almost  her  entire  free  time  in  the  studio  ,  if  u  haven’t  seen  her  in  three  days  chances  are  she’s  trying  to  finish  a  song  .  can  get  a  little  lost  on  it  though  so  she  definitely  needs  some  looking  after  when  she  gets  into  songwriting  mode  .
overall  a  disaster  child  ?  doesn’t  know  how  to  function  but  tries  her  best  &  isn’t  that  all  we  can  ask ? 
𝐖𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐃  𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐍𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒  :
a  secret  relationship  with  a  girl  ,  work  collaborators  ,  a  pr  relationship  ,  exes  ,  the first  love  from  high  school  maybe  ?  ,  roommates  ,  best  friends  ,  protective  friendships  ,  good  influences  ,  bad  influences  ,  smth  based  on  ghostin’  by  ari  ,  something  based  on  you  should  be  sad  by  halsey  .

laura harrier. twenty-four. she/her/hers.  / artemis laurent just pulled up blasting carmen by lana del rey  — that song is so them ! you know, for a(n) twenty-four year old model and actress, i’ve heard they’re really intense, but that they make up for it by being so hard working. if i had to choose three things to describe them, i’d probably say the smell of a freshly blown out candle, piles of old planners, and long manicured nails. here’s to hoping they don’t cause too much trouble ! 
Tumblr media
what’s up kiddos!! it’s ya girl paige (carol’s mun) here with my new baby artemis. sweet girl, but definitely hard to get through im still working out a lot of the KINKS but here she is:
artemis francesca laurant, older half sister to noel, daughter to eva and some one night stand that she doesn’t even remember
from a young age, artemis was like a second mom around the house. she was always looking after noel and trying to help her mom out as best she could
artemis was five when her mother and noel’s father got back together, and that was like the only time in her life she actually got to be a kid and enjoy herself and be a little selfish
she started dance classes around that age, and it was clear she had a talent. she was always dancing around, or singing. she loved performing and dance was her favorite thing
when noel’s father left, artemis was 10, and that was when dance classes stopped because they couldnt afford it
the owner of her dance studio, miss jane, took a liking to artemis from a young age, so when she had to quit for financial reasons, she was given a job at the studio
at first, it was just easy work, but when she got old enough she started teaching dance classes herself
apart from teaching dance, artemis worked as a personal assistant to one of the richer people in their home town of san marcos, as well as attending school
artemis was bright, a very smart student, and also talented. she was in the musicals and did very well in school, all while balancing working and looking out for her brother
speaking of noel, the two were inseparable for their entire lives. it didnt matter that they had different dads, they were the best of friends. artemis did whatever she could to try and give noel the most normal childhood she could
when it came to college, artemis had set her mind on staying home. one day, she got a packet in the mail from julliard offering her a full ride for dance, and she was completely shocked bc she didnt even apply
turned out miss jane sent in an application for her because she thought she had so much talent and didnt want it to be a waste
artemis, however, turned down the full ride because she knew she had to stay home
she went accepted a full ride to texas state, right in san marcos, and was able to attend her classes as well as work as much as seh could
mostly, she wanted to be able to save enough money so that noel could go to whatever school he wanted, and so that their mom could relax a bit
tbh artemis wasn’t fully happy with her life but she knew that she had to support her family, because she loved them
so when noel announced that he and his band were picking up and moving to LA, she was furious
she had given up so much of her life to support her family, she gave up going to the school of her dreams so she could provide for noel and her mom and he was just going to leave them
huge fight, honestly artemis didn’t talk to him for a really long time after that happened because she couldnt understand how selfish he could be
about a year and a half later, noel decided to move them out to LA--while artemis wanted to stay put, their mom insisted they take the opportunity to mend the relationship and lvie a better life
begrudgingly, artemis agreed, and they moved out to LA when she was about 21 years old
at first, she hated it in LA, but after a few months there she was offered some kind of modeling gig. she didn’t think anything would come from it, but it was a victoria’s secret scout, and she soon became a model for the brand
her world turned upside down. she began modeling in magazines, on runways, in the victoria’s secret fashion show.
it was a dream come true
but it wasn’t the dream. so when artemis heard disney was spearheading a high school musical project, she decided to audition
singing and dancing and acting has always been her passion, so given the opprotunity, she wanted to take it
much to her own surprise, artemis was cast in the lead role of nini in high school musical the musical the series
now, artemis is about to start filming the second season of the show, as well as continuing to model and attempting to mend her relationship with her family
random stuff that didnt fit

Why are you guys sleeping on Cinderella?
Alright, so a few days ago, i watched all 3 Cinderella movies and just...
This girl
Is amazing!
In her first movie, she has to do all the chore and be a maid to her stepfamily, but she still works hard, but she doesnt take everything so easily. This girl has attitude every small chance she gets! She axts nice when she is getting in trouble for something that isnt her fault, but she still triws to defend herself. Even thoughout the movie she tries to speak for herself and has snide comments when she can.
Dispite the hatred of her stepfamily, she is still kind to others! She even manages to convince her stepmother to let her keep a dog, so long as he doesnt cause trouble. She dresses, saves, and feeds the mice, just because she can. She is always looking out for others, even if it ia a small thing. And all her help got her repaid when the mice made her dress for her, although they did (technically) steal- causing the dresses destruction.
She wasnt after the prince actually. It seemed that the prince was far from her mind. She just wanted a magical night of fun, to go to the ball, and she worked so hard to get all her chores done so that she could...she aaid she wouldn't go when her dress wasnt finished, but quickly ran down in the new dress the mice made in excitement.
Then it gets ruins, and she runs iut to the garden. Cinderella had put so much effort into just having one fun night....so much work just to have it ripped from her last minute. It is perfectly understandable that she would break down crying after all that. Then fair godmother shows up, and cinderella doesnt stop thanking her.
Plus! She didnt know it was the prince she met st the ball. Althought we dont know whag they talked about, it is shown thst cinderella and prince charming spent all night together - and she disnt even know he was the prince! She says it when she runs away.
Then the rest of the story unfolds. The prince has the grand duke search for her, she geta locked in her room, the mice come to her rescue, and after the glass slipper breaks, she shows thst she has the other slipper, and gets to marry the prince.
In the first movie, she was her own person, who wantwd a night to have fun, and got a lifetime of happiness after all her hard work, and help from others when it was needed!
But movie two shows a bit more if herself.
Movie two has three stories in it, and I love that they made Anastasia redeemable! She became my favorite. But this is not about her (yet).
Cinderella spends the firdt story, trying to be the best princess she can be, by doing jt by the book. She puts forth a lot od effort, not for the man she loves, because she wants to. In the end. She decides that doing it by the book isn't her, and she changes it up, but doesn't shoot her teacher down. She is still friendly ans inviting to her, she never says that her way was dumb, she just wantws to plan things in a new way. She opens the curtains, has dun with colors, music, and dances, and she incites the commoners into the castle. In the end, she has the most slpendid party, and the king and prince approve.
The second story is mostly about jakjak wanting to her cinderelly more, but we do see how cinderella is always finding ways to help people.
The third story is about Anastasia finding love, amoung a common baker. Cinderella finds her, but instead of laughinf st her or ingoring her, she offers her help. She teaches Anastasia how to be beautiful as she is, and helps her find a way to end up with the baker, and speak up for herself. Agian, cinderella was more of a background character here, but she was more active in thsi one.
Now Cinderella three.
This movie takes the cake.
Now, the secibs movie is completely ignored. Anastasia isnt with the baker, and instead, end sup stealing fairy godmother wand, which the evil step mother uses to turn time back to the moening after the dance. She makes Anastasia fit the shoe, and Cinderella misses her chance to show the prince loves her. Now this movie has character developement for EVERYONEA. Cinderella, Anastasia, the prince, and his dad! Cinderella is threatened to never go near the palace, but she knows that her night st the ball wasnt a dream. She sings the most bomb aong ever, and like, why is 'a dream is a wish your heart makes' her song? Like...this one is so much better (in my,personal opinion). She sets oht for the castle, where she sneaks in as a servant, lies about being the royal mouse catcher, hunts down the prince (who was spelled to not remember her) tried to get him to remember, and yeah, she give a up a bit, until the mice tell her that the prince was cursed. Then she is back tenfold! She works to steal the wand, and almost manages to save the prince, before the gaurda catch her. She end sup on a boat, out of the kingdom, and she actually gices up here, which is understandable. But the prince chases after her, and it is a bwautiful scene, go atach the movie, please, the boat scene is adorable. After that, when Anastasia is turned into her, she is asking if it will make anastasia happy, and when she is in a runaway pumpkin carriage of doom, she keeps the mice as safe as possible, while fighting an evil cat. She then crashes her own wedding, and stepped in front of anastasia to protect her from the spell that the stepmother was going to cast. She was headstrong and determined, and she always gave it her all, for even a silver of hope. She only gave up when there was nothing she could do anymore, and it is wasnt given back to her.
Anastasia found out thag she wanted to love someone who would love her back, and (kinda) turned agianst her mother, she refused to msrry the prince, and stayed by Cinderella side, but she still loved her mother, never telling her off. I found it kinda nice, they didn't turn her around to hate her mother suddenly. Anastasia had always worked for her mothers praise, and im sure it hurt to be called a 'spoiled ' child, but she did what was right, for everyone, and her heart as well.
The prince was given moee than a few lines, and was a key part in the story. Not jsut a driving force. He was shown as talented in many things, like a prince would be, but had humor to himself too, he saw anastasia the firdt time, and flat out asked if he was in the wrong room. He believed talking mice when they told him he had the wrong girl, and he JUMPS OUT A WINDOW for her. He also calls her cinderelly, which was a nice little laugh. He uses his sword to hit thw final magic spell to the stepmother, and spwnt the entire movie just looking for the love of his life.
The king was a good laugh, and wss more than just a shott tempted dad aho wants grandkids. He had some logic to him flst out saying "you csnt pick a girl all because of her shoes" and he took anastasia aside to give her a shell that means the world to him, because it was a symbol of the loce between him and his wife. He was still shorttemped, but was showing more of the dad side of him.
Overall, Cinderella herself, as a princess, is more than someone who waited aeound for help. She was always working for a happier life, and when she got the chance, would give it all she got until she couldnt anymore. In conclusion

Im here
Plot:You are Christine's older sister who is secretly helping the phantom be with Christine but when he gets in trouble what will happen next?
~Angst~
Movie+Stage Version
------------------------------------------
It was rehearsals for Don Juan Triumphant and you were one of the ensemble members while Christine had the biggest role in the whole opera, you knew the plan, Erik or as people know him as,Opera Ghost, has set for your sister, you had just recently known that she has been taking lessons from him and recently he's been.....controlling of her.
You were furious of all the things he has done to your sister, telling her to only sing for him and even pushing her too much to her limits, but how can you deny those eyes that seem to hold all the sadness of the world and his touch more comforting than harmfull.
You approved to help him but to a certain extent.
"Those who ta? Tangle with Don Juan!"
"No-no Piangi i already told you"
This was probably the hundredth time he was stopped today and from the looks of it not the last.
You see your sister sneaking of rehearsals and taking her cloak with her.
'Going to fathers grave again perhaps?'
You followed her going to the stables to fetch a horse for transportation.
Just as you were going to tap on her shoulder a hand reached to your hand pulling you far away from your sister.
"E-erik? What the hell are you doing? I demand you to let go of me-"
Just as you were rambling Erik covered your moth with his hand and shushed you.
"Shhh you're gonna get us caught"
"Your sister,Christine, is she going to your fathers grave?"
"Yes she is now would you please remove your hand"
You look at his eyes which was now twinkling with mischief looking at your sister leaving the stables as  his smirk grows larger.
"Look whatever plan you have, go for it as long as my sister is safe and unharmed Ill let you do what you want to do"
You lay your hand on top of his hand that was formerly on your mouth but was now at your shoulder.
"I know how much you love her Erik, but i must warn you the vicomte will probably suspect her gone any minute now and will follow her"
He looks at you and moves his other hand that you werent holding to your cheek, as you struggled not to lean more to his touch he looks at your eyes with a glimmer of hope.
"Thank you (Y/N)"
"You know you are the only one I trust with my life"
Those words made your heart skip a beat and possibly make you smile a bit, you look away from him knowing he needed to leave to go to where your sister is.
"Be careful out there Erik"
A while later
You had knowledge of Eriks underground lair and had already known every passage and every path it takes to get to it, but right now you were sitting at his boat which had one of his cloak (he probably has a dozen) on it as you sit and wait you find yourself drifting off to sleep as you wrapped the cloak around your body (It probably is cold in the catacombs)
Dark, that was all you can see but for some reason you could still hear the music Erik composes when you were at the catacombs, little  melodies floating inside your head as if its lulling you asleep that is until you heard loud thuds of footsteps coming from one of the many passages in the catacombs.
You open your eyes to see Erik who was now trying to keep his anger down, a failed attempt, not the first it happened.
"Erik?"
You approach but as he sees you all the anger in his eyes begins to fade away and without knowing you pulled him to a hug.
"A-are you ok? D-did the vicomte hurt you? Hows my sister, fine I suppose? A-and what happened to your hand?"
You had already released him from the hug and was now inspecting his arm for whatever was causing the redness and rash
"Ah.., Im fine so is your sister, its just that insolent boy and I got into a heated swordfight I suppose when he pinned me to the ground I scraped my hand to hard against the ice"
"You got what! He didnt harm you did he? I know his love for my sister is strong and his anger towards you stronger but please Erik you must take ca-"
He put a hand against your mouth to make you stop rambling again, he slowly and hesistantly enveloped you in a hug, it surprised you ofcourse Erik wasnt one to give affection.
"W-why are you so concerned about me?"
This is it the do or die moment, you had to admit you were starting to hold feelings for The infamous opera ghost, he isnt all bad he's just misunderstood, cast away from society.
"I-i"
"..."
"..."
"..."
"I uhmm n-need to go I leave some bandages here often now since you get in a lot of trouble"
You let go of his hand as you turn to leave the catacombs while Erik stands there still confused on what just happened
The day of the performance
This is it, this is the day Erik was gonna try to make Christine his, you being nervous was an understatement not only did you fear for the danger your sister might face but also the dangers Erik might face.
The Opera Populaire was surrounded by policemen at some point even though you saw the teasing Erik did earlier (which made the police that was on the pit shoot box 5) you were still a tad bit worried that this plan might not indeed work.
"Hey Chrissy?"
You reached out to your sister and enveloped her in a hug immediately.
"Good luck out there ok?"
"And umm I promise"
You caress her hand and look her in the eye with a sincere look
"He will never hurt you"
This seem to confuse your sister, she held your hand with a grip and looked at you with a confused face.
"Wait, you know him? B-but  Ive never even seen you even meet hi-"
Christine looks back at you she starts to add things up with you disappearing  without a trace and not seeing you at the crack of dawn.
"Y-you were with him this whole time?"
"..."
"So what you just became bestfriend with the opera ghost without even telling me?!"
"Its not like you told me you were taking lessons from him either!"
You breathed in and out in attempt to ease the tension of the situation that was unfolding and by the look of it your sister still felt betrayed.
"He isnt a bad man Christine I know deep in your heart you know that"
Your sister looks away from you possibly from betrayal but still holding both of your hands(meaning she probably wasnt that mad)
'Look with your heart
And not with your eyes
A heart understands
A heart never lies'
You sing to her that was the only was you can think of on how to diffuse this entire  arguement.
"Miss Christine Daaé, you are due on stage in 5 minutes"
Christine looks at you with mixed emotion in her eyes and gives you a hug that was too quick to notice.
"I-i must go to my position dear sister"
She lets go of your hand and started to walk away and to her postion to the song where Erik was gonna be on the stage
'The Point Of No Return'
After a while
"Past the point of no return"
The song went by so fast in your head, you can see the police at the sides of the stage ready to aim and shoot at him but you assumed the vicomte didnt let them shoot yet.
Just then you heard screaming when you pushed past the crowds of people to get a close look on the stage it seemed that Christine tore off Eriks mask, your heartstrings tugged a bit the mask was the only think Erik kept close and without it he must have felt some weakness.
You turn to see the chandelier falling but all you could concentrate on right now was where the danm mask was as you finally found it the chandlier was so close to crashing on you but you were pulled aside by Madame Giry.
"(Y/N) for gods sake please be carefull we cant have another Daaé getting hurt tonight!"
"Vicomte! I know where they are you must follow me but remember to keep your hand at the level of your eyes"
You heard Madame Giry exclaim you turn to see Meg teaching the Vicomte how it is done and begged her mother to come with him.
Ofcourse you knew where they were being held but at the corner of your eye you see the policemen giving the Vicomte a gun.
No this cant be good, men with such anger as the Vicomte holds right now may do horrible things.
You rush down another path that leads to the catacombs being carefull not to get spotted by anyone, as you start to approach the catacombs you hide behind a pillar being carefull not to be spotted.
'Have you gorged yourself, at last, in your lust for blood?
Am I now to be prey to your lust for flesh?'
It goes on like as Erik placed the veil to Christines head and as he tries to explain the horrors of having a face like his
'Wait! i think my dear we have a guest!'
I suddenly spot the Vicomte behind the gates of the lair, he starts to beg Erik to release Christine and to show some compassion
'The world showed no compassion to me!'
You felt just how hurt Erik was at the moment but to your suprise (and to Raouls and Christines) Erik opened the gate and turned to walk away to possibly retrieve something.
Thats when you saw it the punjab lasso.
'Why would I make her pay, for the sins which are yours!'
He wrapped the rope around his neck and tightens it but not enough to kill him just yet, thats when Erik made Christine pick between him and Raoul, either he dies or she stay with him.
'Pitiful creature of darkness, what kind of like have you known? God give me courage to show you, you are not alone'
As Christine kissed the phantom you had to admit that it hurt you but who were you to judge, in the eyes of the phantom you were nothing but a friend, at least that was what you thought.
After Christine kissed Erik he seemed to have a change of heart he released the Vicomte and Christine then begged them to just leave him.
But the Vicomte,he was still angered furious really,as he and Christine was sharing a hug he started to reach behind his back, when you looked back at Erik he had his back facing them as he was still wallowing with the pain.
It was from instinct you broke into a run then hugged Erik.
"(Y/n)? W-what are you doing here I thought you had also left me-"
Just as he was talking a gunshot could be heard echoing across the catacombs.
"AAAAAAA!"
Christine was the first to react but when you heard her scream you released Erik from your hug then dropped to the ground.
It took a second for Erik to realize but when he did he kneeled down quickly and craddled you on his arm as he tries to stop the bleeding from your stomach.
"N-no no please GOD PLEASE!"
"Please take anything! Anyone! Please anyone besides her!"
Christine rushed to your side as she grabbed both of your hands and squeezed them tightly.
"N-no! D-dear sister d-ont worry it will be alright, it has to be alright!"
You were already feeling weak probably due to the loss of blood on your body but you still managed to caress her cheek with little strength you had.
"O-ofcourse everything will be alright Chrissy"
You smiled at her but you ended up coughing blood.
"Shh (Y/n) save your energy for now love please"
Erik pleaded as he craddled you closer to him.
"Huh,love, thats a new nickname for me isnt it Erik?"
You tried to make the situation a little better but it seems Erik wasnt listening to you as he was now crying  on your shoulder.
'Love never dies
Love never falters
Once it has spoken
Love is yours'
This seemed to get Eriks attention as he looks at you with sadness in his eyes
'Love never fades
Love never alters
Hearts may get broken
Love endures
H-hearts may get broken
L-love e-endures'
With what little strength you had you pulled his head towards you as he kissed you not caring about the blood that might get on his lips.
As he felt your hand which was at his cheek fall his heart broke as well.
"No no no! NO!"
He was now looking at your closed eyes with a smile still obvious on your face he pulls your body into an embrace as his cries gets louder and more tears fall from his eyes.
'Love never dies
Love will continue
Love keeps on beating
When you're gone'

{Special} College!AU Kun
*tw: there is a lot of mention of alcohol in this one   find college!nct (here) + hs!au dream (here)
major: aviation engineering 
minor: n/a
sports: almost took a yoga class once, does that count? 
clubs: was part of cooking club which shocked just about everyone - especially the culinary majors because why was an engineering major cooking better than them - people who actually wanted to be chefs so unfortunately he got banned,,,,,,,joined photography club instead 
on the outside, kun is probably the most unremarkable college student on campus
he attends his classes, does his work, hangs out with his friends, and never really causes any kind of drama or ruckus 
in a lot of ways he just ,,,,,,, sort of exists
and people only take notice when he’s in the background of things - like that time his roommate lucas broke the shared showers
and lucas, sopping wet in just his towel, was explaining to campus police that he “didnt break anything” the water just magically started overflowing
and kun had to step in, handing lucas a much needed pair of pants and tell the officer that the drains had been busted for weeks. it was only a matter of time till this happened 
or when mark confessed he really had no idea how to write a resume and kun was like
“here, take my word document template including a bunch of fake things i embellished about you, but not really because you are a great person!”
mark with tears in his eyes: th-thanks bro
basically, kun is the unsung hero of his friends
he’s always got their back - and he’s always there to support him
but he’s never like in the limelight 
on the outside only of course
the reality is, kun works outside of taking classes. 
to everyone on campus it’s a night shift stocking a local store in the college town downtown
but in reality, kun works as a bartender 
when he was a freshmen, he had found a online video of a bartender mixing drinks - but adding a magical flare to it
whether it was setting the drinks on fire
building pyramids out of glasses
or pouring drinks that swirled around and changed color
the video had fascinated kun, and he decided to see if he’d be any good at the job
turns out - he was
he had always liked being in the kitchen, working with food - working with drinks was pretty similar
each had its home ingredients, and each took its time to prepare
and with his job at the bar - he could be somebody else
he wasn’t just the college kid in the background
he could entertain, he could laugh, he could have fun and stop cleaning up his friends problems 
instead he could make other young strangers happy with his drinks and his magic
the only problem was this kun,,,,,,,,,,was far removed from regular kun
and keeping the secret did make kun feel bad
from his friends to his fellow engineering peers
everyone just thought “oh he’s going to his job at the store! he’ll probably study there and get into no trouble - it’ll be bland!”
when in reality he was doing just the opposite 
but at the same time,,,,kun felt like there was no way to connect the two. no one would believe he had this other,,,,,vibrant side
plus - he was juggling school and this job pretty well
his dream had always been to fly and fix planes when he was older 
so he took up engineering 
it came naturally and unlike a lot of people he did enjoy studying 
but there was time for geeking out about plane parts in his classes
but also still putting on his bartenders vest and striking smile for his nightime shifts
to everyone around him, kun was always there to be that encouraging buddy
that person who had the answers when you needed them 
because he himself never got into trouble 
ten would always clap kun on the back and go, “you need to party more! let loose! but not too loose - remember what happened to johnny last saturday?”
and kun would just laugh and agree
all the while thinking that his friends just didn’t know 
the closest anyone ever came to suspecting was when kun had a menu pulled up on his laptop of new drinks from the bar
and taeyong had went “what’s that?”
kun had broken into a cold sweat, trying to think up an excuse 
only to sigh of relief when taeyong switched the tab aimlessly to a youtube video kun had been watching about pilot safety tips
you ,,,,,, only knew kun as the bartender from your favorite place to drink after a tough test or a shitty day on campus
that’s because you went to college in the part of the city that kun worked in
so to you - kun was an enigma 
he was the striking smile and the crazy magic tricks 
and the smooth talking, sociable bartender who every person literally fell in love with for their first hour at the bar
you didn’t know about the kun who was quiet and plain
and to be honest, if someone told you kun was the last person to be noticed at his campus
you’d think they were lying - or being plain rude
because no matter how many times you’d been to the bar, no matter how many other boys have been around you
have talked to you
tried to wind you out from your bad mood
the only person who ever made you feel better, aside from the drink in your hand was kun
and to be honest you didn’t even go there to drink anymore 
you went there for the small talk with kun
even five minutes of just college kid banter with him was enough to make you forget your shitty professors and your three essays all due in the same week
but,,,,,,,,you’re pretty sure it’s the same for everyone else
kun’s job means he has to be nice to you
he has to be charming, inviting, and ever so handsome 
that warm feeling you get in the pit of your stomach whenever he smiles or his hand brushes against yours
you’re sure he’s got that spell cast over everybody
afterall - how could anyone ignore someone like kun?
and what makes it all worse is the fact that your little fascination with him absolutely grows into a crush
when you’re seated at the bar, looking at the beer you ordered - thinking about how intro to nuclear biology turned out to be the WORSE choice for an elective
when someone slides in to the seat beside you
smug look on their face and all
“how are you doing tonight? you’re far too gorgeous to be looking so gloomy.”
the pick up line makes you almost roll your eyes
but you look up at the person and shake your head instead
“i like being gloomy, college was made for that.”
instead of warning them off - the person seems to think your sarcasm is an invite to stay and chat
then they think its an invite to order you a drink
even when you tell them your bottle is half full
kun comes over when the stranger waves their hand
he looks picturesque in his little satin vest, the bow-tie and big glimmering eyes
“a drink for this beautiful angel to my left~”
the say and you reach out before kun can turn around
“i,,,,,dont want it. thank you.”
kun’s expression doesn’t falter, he just nods and glides his way over to another customer 
for a second,,,,you feel a little bit hurt
when you’d stopped him - you were hoping kun would read the pleading look in your eye
begging to somehow be saved from the awkward advances of a total random straner
but kun had a job to do, it’s not like he was going to be the knight in shining armor you wished he would be
“why’d you say no to a free drink?”
you look up at the stranger
“i know why you’re buying it for me, and im flattered - but im not interested.”
the once cheap kindness on their face twists into hurt pride
suddenly you’re not just annoyed,,,you’re a little worried as they lean in closer 
but before they can whisper whatever it is that they’re thinking they pull back 
yelping in pain, they look over to where a smiling kun on the otherside of the bar
has slammed a glass hard onto their hand
“ow! why they fuck did you put that shit on my hand!” 
the stranger winces, pulling his red hand up to his chest protectively as kun lifts up the glass
kun’s smile never even changes
but his eyes are darker than usual, sparking with some kind of emotion you’ve never seen from him
“oh, oops. i must have not seen your hand. you should go to the bathroom and ice that.”
the stranger grumbles, throws some more curses you and kun’s way and then disappears into the crowd
you turn and kun tilts his head as you stare at him in shock
“you - you didn’t have to do th-”
kun shrugs
“what? it was a genuine mistake.”
but he winks an then goes back to taking orders
and you sit there, feeling the warmth in your stomach that you usually get around kun turn into a blossoming blush on the insides of your heart
it’s that incident that makes you fall head over heels
you think it’s a little juvenile, in love with the handsome bartender
but you’re in college you’re allowed to be a little juvenile - after all these are the last four years till you’re living in the adult world 
but even still - you know kun just sees you as another regular 
another college student with your woes, and you’re sure he has some of his own
you daydream that he must be some kind of cool major like music or philosophy 
or something prestigious like pre-law or pre-med
how he must walk around on campus with an entire entourage of smitten students wanting him to notice them
how he probably dresses super stylish 
how everyone only looks at him and is super duper jealous or in love - 
that must be how kun is like at school
because that’s what he’s like here 
can you imagine the shock when you end up on kun’s college campus - visiting with your club to give a presentation in the science dept
only to see kun
wearing plain black pants,,,,a button up flannel,,,,,a messenger bag you’re sure he’s had since middle school
and glasses
sitting in the corner of the quad - quietly 
reading an,,,,,,,engineering textbook
surrounded by absolutely no one
passed by like he,,,,like he isn’t even there
you nearly triple take just to make sure it’s really really him
and one of your club members jokingly tells you to stop or you’ll swivel your head right off 
i mean there’s no way right,,,there’s no way the bartender i know,,,,,is that boy sitting over there? so,,,,so unnoticeable,,,
after you leave - the only thing in your head is the image of kun hunched over his book like that 
you keep trying to figure out an explanation 
and as you’re sitting in your room you just think - why am i broading about it? i should just ask him.
the thought makes your heart stop,,,,but you decide that if anything ,,,, this all makes kun more approachable 
more attainable 
but you shake that thought off and when you find yourself on a friday evening at the bar again
watching kun pour shots that turn from a clear white into a misty, fragrant pink 
you wonder how someone can just do a 180 and become someone completely new
you’re jealous - it must be a talent
kun’s shift comes to an end at three
and even though you think it’s a little corny that you waited - even a little creepy actually
you just can’t help but want to know 
and when kun sees you, he doesn’t seem at all concerned or annoyed
instead he smiles and waves
“it’s so late, it’s dangerous going home now.”
he warns and you feel your stomach do a flip
his first sentence out of his mouth isn’t why are you here? what do you want? it’s the need to show worry and empathy,,,,like is he seriously just the best person on earth?
you smile weakly, “kun - can i ask you something?”
he nods slowly, looking at you with what seems the most pure gaze in the world
“i,,i saw you - a couple of days ago. you were reading a engineering  textbook. is that your major?”
everything seems to drain right out of kun’s face
his smile vanishes like melting wax off a candle
and you instantly feel like this is it - that you could die of embarrassment and shame in this moment
when in a quiet voice he goes , “yes”
you don’t know what else to say - so you blurt out what you’re thinking
“do you not like it? you sound so sad,,,,,”
kun pulls suddenly at the bow-tie around his neck 
“i like it alot. it’s just,,,,” 
he stares dejectedly at the ground in the darkness of the night
“it’s just it doesn’t fit who i am here - right? it’s boring.”
you gape, unsure of what he really means
“you know me as the bartender here, as the happy and outgoing magician of drinks or whatever but in reality,,,that’s an illusion”
he shrugs
“im very plain. i like engineering. i like planes. and i dont really like to stand out. isn’t that funny?”
before your mind can tell you to pause, you reach out and grab kun’s cold hand
his wide eyes meet yours as you shake your head
“it’s not funny, and it’s not an illusion. this job is one part of you - but the other part of you is too. engineering is so interesting, it’s unexpected - but it’s cool and one day i would really like if you -”
your voice trembles - you’ve never really confessed to anyone before this
“i would really like if you told me more about it!”
kun doesn’t say anything for a bit 
so much so that you panic, letting go of his hand and whispering a feeble apology
but then he steps closer to you 
and you don’t know what he’s going to do next until he puts his hand slightly over your head
confused, you look up - noticing finally that it has started to rain
and kun is shielding you from it 
“im fine you don’t ha-”
“it’s late, it’s raining, the right thing is to make sure you stay dry and take you home.”
you feel your entire body burn up in a blaze when kun says that 
and you feel even more hot when he pulls you gently into his side as you walk down the street, you nervously giving him directions to your dorm
and when you finaly get there 
the RA simply looks up from her phone with a shrug
and you turn to thank kun again
“i dont work wednesdays. would that be an ok day for you?”
he says and you blink
“wh-what do you mean?”
he grins, “you said you wanted me to tell you more, could i take you out on wednesday?”
you do meet kun that following wednesday 
you sit in an obscure little cafe for lunch as kun pulls his textbook out of that beat up old messenger back 
and opens it up to a page of a diagram and tells you
“it may bore you, but this is my favorite model for planes. there’s a lot of technical stuff, but it’s my fathers favorite too.”
you know kun is keeping everything short - always limiting himself from saying to much
in some weird way you can feel that he thinks he’ll only annoy you with it
but you lean in, holding your cup of tea excitedly with both hands and urge him with a smile to never skip over the technical stuff - you want to know everything
and kun isn’t used to all this attention on him
the suave and experienced bartender playboy you thought he was is nothing close to the reality
he still plays little magic tricks
pulling coins from behind your ear and making a napkin on the table float
but they’re nothing flashy, they’re nothing crazy
they’re,,,,,,,more natural - just like kun
and it’s the little things that you learn about him that make you realize that you might have had a crush on bartender kun
but you could really fall in love with the real kun
the way he moves so he walks closest to the road when he’s with you
how he puts your hand in his pocket as you’re on the way back and the ac in the bus is a little too high
how he swiftly catches the side of your hip when you almost trip on the stairs 
and how he does it all without even thinking about it
helping and taking care of others is so,,,,,,,,in kun’s nature 
and he does it without any expectation of recognition or praise 
he’s the real definition of humbleness
so much so that 
when you stare at him, eyes flicking between his lips - up and down for nearly a minute straight on your third little date
he has to ask, literal permission
“is it ok if i kiss you?”
“i thought the staring at your lips would give away the answer to that one.”
for a while you still cant believe you’re actually dating kun 
but you start to put together that you’re not dating the kun you daydreamed about 
although you still think he’s literally irresistible in his bartender uniform
and he looks more than charming at his night time job still
you’re dating the slightly wallflower-ish kun who much more than ever makes your heart dance and not just your stomach feel warm
but every last part of your being 
you’ll still drop by, watch him do his job perfectly, watch everyone in the room fall in love just like you did
but kun never takes it beyond the bar
the only person whose hand he holds, the only person who he calls his wonder in his native min, the only person who gets to see him shed off all this dazzle and become comfortable 
is you
and kun tells you that he remembers watching you get hit on by that stranger whose hand he almost nailed to the bar top 
and how he’d sensed from the beginning that something was off and if he’d been more daring he would have dragged the dude out the door himself
which surprises you because,,,,,you thought that that moment was just kun being kun
that he’d done it for millions of other people in unwarranted situations and although kun admits that he’s casually saved a couple of people from awkward converstion
you had been the first person he,,,,,,had slammed a glass down on someones hand for 
“no one else has ever really evoked that out of me,,” he says one afternoon as you’re sitting between him and a pile of books he’s dragged out of the library
you giggle and kun looks at you all cute and confused
while you tell him that it’s nothing, he’s just - full of surprises
kun and you dating does surprise the rest of nct
notably lucas whose like “bro you are my roommate,,,,how did i not know you were getting spicy with someone”
you: “did he just say spicy?”
kun, deadpan: “that’s just lucas.”
doyoung grabbing lucas by the year: “apologize to them for calling their young beautiful love spicy right now.”
sicheng in mandarin to kun: “but ,,,,, are you two spicy,,,,you know-”
jkjkjkjk
but after the initial shock wears off,,,,you become a natural part of the group
you sort of stay in the sidelines watching nct get up to no good
with kun at your side, shrugging it off and telling you that when you’re both needed to save someone - you’ll be there
but secretly, for kun, it’s finally such a relief to have someone there with him
even if he’d always been content with being the quiet, always comes to the rescue at the last minute kind of friend
there had still been times when he hadn’t even been able to bring his own problems to the table 
but now, with you, he can do that
and you’re probably the only one in the world to ever see kun get stressed
so much so that when you tell taeyong you’re thinking of maybe getting kun something to distract him from all his worries
taeyong chokes on his rice and goes, “he-he’s worried about something?!!?”
(moral of the story is you teaching nct to pay attention to kun’s pains sometimes - mark apologizes profusely for almost an hour about not doing so)
but no really, finally for kun there’s someone who not to be a total cornball
but someone who puts him first - just like he puts everyone else
and to be honest it’s nice to be taken care of 
also you’re cute. you’re cute when you’re taking care of him. or when you’re not taking care of him. or when you’re right in front of him. or when he’s getting distracted looking at your photo which he made his phone background in class. basically you’re very cute
kun tells everyone you’re very cute
there are many ways to say cute in different languages and kun might just learn all of them just so he can call you cute
also, aside from telling his friends about your relationship - you also end up taking them to the bar
to see kun in action
and although it kind of makes kun a little shy, all of nct nearly fall off their chairs when they see him get into the groove
johnny even claims, in a bit of a tipsy manner, that kun really is the coolest of all of them huh - taeyong you may have your perfect face but kun is really winning oh shit im going to fall dow-
ten, the designated driver thanking you and kun when you have to drag taeil down from atop the bar stage after the tenth time of singing “what is love?”
but anyway back to your relationship with kun
he really is such an attentive person, it’s just part of him to pick up on the little things
he knows your habits, he knows your likes and dislikes 
you dont even have to tell him where to put his hand around you - he knows that you prefer your waist over your shoulders
he knows that you hate milk in your coffee
he knows that you’d much rather wear his green hoodie than the red button down jungwoo got him for christmas 
he knows when you’re mad before you can even say anything, he knows you’re about to cry before the tears even fall
and you’re so amazed he soaks up all this information and remembers it about you
because it makes you feel completely and utterly loved
people who otherwise don’t know much about kun like to assume he’s kind of closed up
that he doesnt pay attention, that he’s off in his own world
but that’s not true - not at all
and even though kun always pulls you into his arms, nose settled in the crook of your neck
murmuring that there’s nothing in the world he wants then to be here alone with you 
you sometimes want to pull him up and have the world realize who he is 
how great he is 
and how much you love him
also can i just say that he’s so sweet that when you first end up staying the night kun’s hand trembling on the buttons of your jeans
he looks up, eyes blown out and his hair a mess from making out just to go
“stop me now, i dont want to keep going because if i do i think i might really become addicted to you.”
LIKE HE LITERALLY SAYS THAT 
and had it not been for you just really wanting him - you might have burst out into tears and hugged him close because he’s so cute
(you know after he was all shy like,,,was it ok,,,i haven’t done this much,,,,,if i can i will impro- *you shut him up with a lot of kisses*)
sometimes you’ll still swing by the bar for a drink on a bad day, but instead of it you swing by
and kun signals to the manager for his break
only to meet up with you out back
and ask you whats wrong, even though he knows what you actually want
which is to kiss his face
and he lets you
(has had to fix his bowtie a LOT more since he started dating you) 
(also had to start carrying a comb with him because gosh darn it you keep messing up his hair)
you know that kun is good at making drinks, but when he cooks some of his home favorite meals
you take one bite
get up
and go over to smother him in more kisses
“you are husband material, you know this right?”
kun tilting his head with his chopsticks in his mouth: “i dont think i am.”
you getting up again to give him even more kisses: “god i love you”
kun doesn’t talk much when you guys hang out with his friends which is like totally normal 
and you’re ok just cuddling into his side, watching the rest of nct make a fool of themselves
at the movies or at the park or wherever
but one day kun is like “guys wanna see my new magic trick?”
and everyone is like hell yeah
and youre like ? wonder what it is, he didn’t show me this one yet either
and then kun just goes 
“right now ill show you guys my ENTIRE universe. wanna see it?”
and all of nct is like huh
and doyoung is like snorting like there’s no way to shrink the universe down or something like what are you going to pull out a tiny globe keychain out of your pocket-
kun pointing directly to you
“there it is. my entire universe.”
nct: dead:
you: literally going to faint
kun: thank you. no need for a standing ovation.

NCT dream react to a duet with idol! s/o.
requested~
Tumblr media
Mark When you were both announced to be performing together for a duet stage, Mark didnt expect so much love from the community sigh, in a perfect world idols can date. He was honestly quite surprised, but also very very happy that he finally got to share the stage with the one he loves. It was going to be a part of an award show, and you were set to perform a dance /rap duo, and from the practices; you could already tell it would get a reaction. The choreographer took it into mind that you both were in a relationship, thus why , about 30 seconds of the song, was when mark wasnt holding you close. But who were you to complain? the rest of the dance was awesome, and full of power. You, who had debuted in a girl group, didnt usually get to show this kind of visual, the debut song for your group something alot more light hearted, the dances simple and effective. SM was a smart company, and they praised you and Mark for telling them straight away when you got into a relationship, and they chose to support you both. It was like a dream come true. You both stood on the darkened stage, and the announcers voice begins; “and now, we have a duo of perfect harmony on and off stage, from SM entertainment; NCT’s Mark Lee and y/g/n’s y/n! performing a duet of dance and rap, now, lets enjoy this young love!” The crowd went nuts, not even an exaggeration, they LOVED you two, and Mark was so proud that you were there with him. As you danced with him on the stage, he couldnt help but to get lost, as he did usually, both of you dancing for yourselves and not the millions of fans. As the lights went back to dark, leaving you both breathlessly running off the stage, the audiences applause was loud enough to be heard from backstage, it continued for minutes, making you both smile. “good job baby, we need to do this more often.” “i agree” overall hed probably end up more whipped for you because you’re amazing.
Tumblr media
Renjun Your New group’s debut was met with many criticisms, but with double the amount of praise. You were a member of your group that could speak chinese, thanks to your family moving over to China when you were young, you learnt the language and attended a school there, as well as a dance club, conveniently where you met Renjun. When SM said that they were sending a Duo to china to promote , you didnt expect for them to literally choose you and your boyfriend. Renjun was over the moon, he knew that he wanted to perform with you more than anything, and this way he could also prove that you were his. You were set to head over together, both of you taking a plane, and then heading to the venue. Renjun was beside you the entire time. At first, you were a little rusty switching back into fluent Chinese, but Renjun was there to help, and soon it felt as though you were back at school again. You both worked in perfect harmony, capturing the hearts of the audience as you talked before dancing, talking about how you met and how you were both very scared to travel to Korea for this opportunity, but doing it together helped you get through the tough times. “y/n, well, im young so you may not believe me when i say this, but y/n is my everything” Renjun smiled, squeezing your hand. “so, wed like to perform for you, thankyou for coming!” You both began your dance and singing duet, it was a mashup of two of the songs that were from yours and Renjuns group; Nct dream. Whilst on the stage, he looked at you and only you, focused on your beauty and talent, it gave him strength and determination to do the same. When you both finished, you finally broke eye contact, and a roar of applause was heard, making you both smile sheepishly. “thankyou! and thankyou my beautiful girlfriend, and my beautiful fans, for accepting us!”
Tumblr media
Jeno Jeno loved being by your side, and having you on stage with him? as his girlfriend? and duet partner? He never thought that it could happen, and run so smoothly. When he was questioned by SM about your relationship, he told them that he cared about you, and the fans, and would do his best to maintain his image. SM appeared to be approving of his maturity and rather than shut it down, they promoted the idea that their idols are mature enough to think for themselves. He helped you up the stairs to the stage, and photographers couldnt get enough of you two; the face of young love in the media currently.
As you both began to perform, he felt relaxed, and he felt as though he could go with the flow, because he knew you could do it.  His trust in you was equivalent to an astronaut in their rocket; Hed risk his life for you. You both danced together, ending in a pose where you were holding hands. Everyone agreed that you two were very cute together, and Jeno seemed to have the urge to dance with you more and more, wanting to post dance cover videos with you> “jagi i have so many ideas!!” “ooo LETS DO ALL OF THESE!” “this one too!!”
Tumblr media
Haechan Haechan was confused to say the least when he was dragged into the office, they had already settled down the whole dating scandal, and you both had come clean about dating, and you were met with so much support. He almost felt like laughing when they asked him to do a duo stage with you, assuming that he was getting in trouble. But he dismissed the urge and agreed straight away. As you were both Idols, you never got to sit with eachother at award cerimonies, unless fate was really on your side. But since you two were performing a duet, you were allowed to sit next to eachother for the whole night. When you both entered to walk to your seats, everyone gushed about how kind Haechan was, as he passed you a pillow, and sat holding your hand. You smiled and turned to a fan who sat behind you both, after they said how amazing Haechan was. “I know right! hes so amazing, really” The fan smiled at you and turned to their friend. “wow she is nice too! i ship it!” this made you smile, and Haechan was about to question you when they began to usher you both backstage for your performance. It was more focused on singing, this time, both of you stood on stage with standing microphones, you played guitar and both of you began to sing a soft and sweet acoustic love song, making many begin to smile at you both. Throughout the entire piece Haechan stared at you with loveheart eyes, he never thought that you could get any more beautiful, but he stood corrected. He watched as a little strand of hair moved into your face, and like second nature he fixed it, causing the whole crowd to scream. He smiled at you, and you smiled black, a soft pink on your cheeks. “i loved this and i loved you” hed say afterword, pulling you in for a hug.
Tumblr media
Jaemin As publicly announcing a relationship would go, You and Jaemin were on the lucky side. You were both friends before you got into a relationship, and his fans were already used to you being around, the majority already shipped you both as a couple as well. You both were about to perform a duo, then after, you were to announce that you guys were in a relationship. You were nervous to say the least, and so was Jaemin. Neither of you had experienced something like this before, but, you were ready. Throughout the entire dance and song Jaemin kept his eyes on you, and fans noticed, whenever you both got close, theyd scream and cheer”kiss” for you two, which caused you to both blush as you finished the dance. You seemed to be in a daze when Jaemins voice broke you out of it. “so, everyone, did you like our performance?” the crowd screamed “yes!” “it was kind of romantic , dont you think y/n?” he winked, making you blush and chuckle, the crowd screaming. “hmm i think so?” you smiled. “on that note, we do have something to tell you all.” Jaemin said, going serious. Both of you took your ear pieces out, as he grabbed your hand. “Y/n and I are together, and we’re very happy” He smiled. If you thought the fans went nuts before, you were wrong, so many people were smiling and chanting your names, and you couldnt help but smile up at jaemin, who brought you into a hug.
Tumblr media
Chenle Chenle would be a nervous mess before the performance, you were both publicly in a relationship, and this was the first promotion you were doing together. It was a dance duo for a TV show, and you both had no idea what kind of reaction youd get when it is announced that youre performing. “and now, we have a new young couple, performing a dance duo; NCT Dream’s Chenle, and y/g/n’s y/n!” The TV audience was screaming, and you both had looks of surprise on when you walked on the stage, causing the host to laugh. “why the surprised looks?” “its just- wow, what a reaction!” Chenle smiled. “yeah! we were very nervous to perform together..” you added. “well, we all love you two together, right everyone?” “yes!” the crowd screamed, making you both look to eachother and smile brightly. As the lights dimmed and the music started, you both couldn't contain your happiness, and danced with full energy, doing one of the best performances you had both ever done. You danced your hearts out, and sung the soft lovey lyrics as if you were speaking to eachother. The crowd loved it, and chanted your names. “thankyou all so much, its so nice being able to be in my favourite place with my favorite person, thankyou!” chenle smiled lovingly at you, and waved to the crowd, helping you down the stairs to the seats for your interview together.
Tumblr media
Jisung Instead of being asked to do a full stage together, SM suggested that youd both do a V-live together, dancing and learning choreography. You and Jisung both agreed, both being the main dancers of your groups, and not to mention the Maknae’s, when fans got news that you were both dating, they called you the “power dance couple” and it made you both happy. For the livestream, you both waited until you got a good ammount of viewers, before Jisung tugged on your arm, and hugged you, causing you to slap his arm slightly. He just chuckled and turned to the camera. “hello everyone , I am NCT dream’s Maknae, Jisung, and this is my girlfriend Y/g/n’s Makne, y/n.” he introduced which made you laugh at his awkwardness. He shot a side glare at you and you just teased him, all the comments were surprisingly happy for you both, saying that they can see the chemistry. When you both started dancing, Jisung wondered why he ever though about practicing alone, when he had you. Dancing was so much more thrilling with you there, both of you mucking about, and having a fun time, creating a fun time for the viewers too- and fuel for futire videos that would be made to showcase you two together. He figured, he loved dancing with you, and one day, you would both take the big stage by storm together. END -admin rose

Chiling Adventures of Sabrina Familar headcannons
(Some spoilers for Pt.2)
Just some headcannons about some witches and warlocks and some familars I think would be perfect for them
Tumblr media
Ambrose Spellman
Tumblr media
Hilda Begged Zelda to let Ambrose have a familar after everything that happened with Blackwood but Ambrose and Zelda were both taken back by this Ambrose because everything that happened with leviathan and he insisted he could protect himself and Zelda scoffed at the idea that they couldn’t protect him but after awhile considering everything that happened Ambrose didn’t mind having another familar as long as it didn’t cause him any trouble and Zelda gave in saying that having a little extra protection wouldn’t be that bad but he needs her approval and no more wild familars even though out loud Zelda would never say this it was nice having Salem around Ambrose picked out a beautiful King Cobra and at first Zelda hated the idea but she saw how happy it made him and let him have it but she knew Hilda would allow him to get in anyway and with being high priestess she didn’t need anymore headaches
Nick Scratch
Tumblr media
After being freed from hell by Sabrina he struggled a bit with coming back and dealing with everything he wasn’t himself so Sabrina wanting to help the ones she loves seeks advice from her Aunt Hilda at Dr.Cerberus’s Bookstore and Hilda proposes a potion that might help but Sabrina didn’t think that would help Dr. Cerberus suggested a companion animal but that only made Sabrina think of Amalia but overtime she thought about this and decided to take it upon her to find him a familar one less wild than a wolf but just as loyal and she found one she thought was perfect a familar that took the shape of a Husky at first Nick didn’t want anything to do with another familar but overtime he grew fond of it although it’s way friendlier than most familars but it does have a disdain for Harvey which causes Nick to have a few laughs every now and then
The Weird Sisters
Tumblr media
When the weird sisters were young they were like any other witches at the academy they dreamed of what familar they wanted but after finding out that familars were cosindered weak by witches who who brought them to the academy they decided they didn’t need a familar for protection or companionship they had each other and they were powerful together but they do have some ideas on what they would want as familars. Prudence always wanted a cat familar to be specific a Siamese Cat and she still is a cat person to this day but she would never let anyone know it when visiting Ambrose at the Spellman mortuary when she thinks no one is watching she often plays with Salem but she would never let anyone see this side of her treating this creature with such kindness but Sabrina once caught her she never spoke of it but finds it refreshing to see that despite what prudence would like others to believe she does have a softer side. As for Agatha she would like an owl she always thought they were proud creatures she admired how they could master power and intelligence all at once striking they’re prey precisely but when she was younger she had a secret when the other witches went to bed Agatha would practice her spells and sometimes curses untill she grew tired but she always noticed they’re was an owl sitting on a branch at night just waiting it never flew off it just stayed sometimes it would swooped down on mice but it always ended up right back on this branch and sometimes she would open the window and the owl would fly on the ledge of the window and watch her perform her spells she would put on these magic shows until she grew tired or the owl flew off but to this day sometimes she’ll wait to see if this owl will ever come back to that branch. For Dorcas She always wanted a Hare she thought they were the cutest creatures and even though her sisters and the entire coven would probably look down upon her for this she didn’t care she didnt want a familar for protection she just wanted a companion
Elspeth
Tumblr media
Elspeth was always a misunderstood witch she never had any friends at the academy except for Melvin she did okay in her classes she wasn’t a star student like Prudence or Nick teachers would scold her because she was drawing in her notebooks or drifting off she felt trapped but she had her ways of escape when the other witches had left her dorm she would play mortal music and dance around the room she felt free Listening to her favorite bands Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin but these nights were few and far in between so when her roommates did stay in she would take her broom and fly in circles around the academy singing the lyrics to her favorite songs but one thing Elspeth has always been judged on is her fascination with mortals although she’d never tell anyone she wondered what it would be like to be a mortal to not have these powers to have freedom instead of power so when the time came to pick her familar she wanted to have a familar that knew what it felt like to be caged and understood how it felt to be free like flying under moonlight or dancing to your favorite songs when no one is around at first she thought about a vulture then a crow but utlimately she choose a bat and sometimes she gone on her flights at night singing her favorite songs while her familar flies right by her side
Melvin
Tumblr media
Melvin has always been a shy warlock he wasn’t brave and bold like the rest of the warlocks and he has a small circle of people he calls friends but he’s always been self conscious especially around witches he’s has never known how to say the right thing or know what’s cool to wear he wishes to be like his fellow warlock Nick; brave, good looking able to date whoever he wanted and it wasn’t a surprise that many witches at the academy had a crush on him but he caught the eye of a witch Melvin had always liked Dorcas and it crushed Melvin when he found out that nick was dating all three of the weird sisters Nick always broke rules and yet always seemed to get away with it unlike Melvin he followed every rule and never missed a coven meeting or service that is untill he met Elspeth she taught him to not care so much but they both know he will always care even if it’s just a little how to break a few rules be a little rebellious they were witches and warlocks after all he admired Elspeth she had always managed to be herself no matter what people thought of her and even when she wasn’t be completely herself she still managed to show who she was and be unapologetic about it but before Melvin’s 16th birthday he had to choose a familar and he had no idea what he wanted he wanted something that would impress the other warlocks and Get some attention from some witches but Elspeth told him to choose a familar that he wanted not what other warlocks would like or what Dorcas would like so true to Melvin he over anyalyzed and waited a bit most of the familars he wanted weren’t available anymore so he limited it down to three a toad a rat and a ferret and Melvin ended up choosing a Ferret he choose what he wanted even though most of the other warlocks would have preferred a rat for the first time he didn’t care
A few more just for fun
Edward Spellman
Tumblr media
Growing up with his two sisters wasn’t the easiest for Edward his father was often away leaving Edward to often step in and fill his role while he was away if that meant breaking up a fight between Zelda and Hilda before Zelda would use her powers to light Hilda’s favorite plants on fire or worse but this helped Edward become a great leader and Edward truly loved both his sisters he sometimes worried about them but ultimately knew they would be fine as much they argue and fight they were sisters and he was they’re brother even if sometimes Zelda would get furious with him for taking Hilda’s side or trying to tell her what to do or when Hilda would get furious at Zelda and Edward for not defending her at the academy or when Edward would take Zelda’s side Edward would never have said this aloud but he sometimes he wished he could be an only child he remembered a time where he was the only child before Zelda was born he remembered being handed the Familar registry at a age most warlocks would never have gotten to choose their familar but Edward was no ordinary warlock he choose a raven even though his father thought a Black Labrador would have been a more suitable option but then he remembers withought his sisters he couldn’t ever have made it to where he was without them he needed them just as much as they needed him
Faustus Blackwood
Tumblr media
A month before his dark baptism Faustus had thought long and hard about what he his familar to be he wanted something powerful and intimidating something that struck fear like he had but he knew what he wanted he wanted a familar that took the shape of a Vulture

Loudmouth
(I wrote some statement fic. It’s been a heck of a while since I wrote anything for fandom.)
Statement of Ulla Ness, regarding, um... a peculiar transformation. Original statement given March 14th, 1999. Audio recording by Christopher Peake, in an… unprofessional capacity. Statement begins.
I still don’t see why I had to come to you. I know you have an email address, so wouldn’t it have been easier to just scan the form and send it to me? Hell, I would have taken a physical copy sent to me in the post. It would have been slower, but it would have meant I could have stayed at home. But no. I asked, and you just gave me a lot of waffle about how you have ‘strict acquisition policies’, alongside directions that had been copied from google maps. Which I know, because I checked.
It’s not that I’m lazy, you understand, far from it. I used to have what I regarded as quite the active social life. But recently that’s become impossible for me to maintain, for a number of reasons. Which are also the reasons that I’ve come to talk to you.
I used to be quite a religious person. Still am, I suppose. I’m not entirely sure. I was a member of the congregation of Saint Mary’s, a small anglican church in a small, anglican village up in Lincolnshire. Not everybody there was particularly devout, but it wasn’t one of those places where it especially mattered. It was more about the sense of community we had. Catching up with each other after communion on Thursdays, singing in the choir, arranging cake sales or coffee mornings as fundraisers for whatever bit of the building had fallen off now. I’ve been attending since I was little, and more or less grew up with the congregation.
I miss it quite badly, if I’m being honest. I’ve always been the sort to need other people, but I didn’t realise quite how much losing them would affect me. You don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone and all that, I suppose.
It started with another fundraiser, a jumble sale this time. I had volunteered to help manage the event, so I was in charge of sorting through the items that people had brought in for us to sell. Like I said, not everyone there was strictly devout, and didn’t always take care with what they decided to donate. Some people seemed to use it as more of an excuse to toss legitimate junk in our direction and call it a good deed.
This was definitely the case with Mister Ashley. He attended purely because his mother was too old to walk by herself, and I rather think that she insisted that he stay with her throughout the service. It was definitely at her behest that he took part in any communal activities. She would always announce that he would be happy to run stalls or make tea or some other menial duty, while he sat by her side, stony-faced, and saying nothing at all.
The only time I remember him giving any sort of reaction was when when his mother announced that her Jamie would be happy to donate some of his shop’s excess stock for the jumble sale. I remember, he turned to her with the strangest look on his face. At the time, I thought it was one of badly suppressed outrage. I assumed that she had simply gone a bit too far in volunteering his services; Mister Ashley was a second hand book seller, and owned the Jabberwock Bookshop just off from Memorial Square. It can’t have been all that easy to turn a profit. Thinking back on it now, though, and I wonder if his expression was something sharper than just anger. If it could have been alarmed, almost panicked. But I believe that is likely be nothing more than hindsight colouring my memories. If he had had some way of knowing, had been frightened of something like that which came to pass, then… well. I cannot honestly say I ever truly liked James Ashley, but neither can I believe that he would be as cruel or as cowardly as to not have said or done anything.
As it was, he brought the books to the side room the next day, where I was going through the donations and sorting the sellable items from those things too broken, torn, stained, or just plain unusable. I had just set aside yet another jigsaw- this one with almost two thirds of the pieces obviously missing- when he knocked on the outer door. In spite of the heavy rain, he wasn’t wearing a coat, hat, or boots. He didn’t say a word to me when I opened it, just shouldered his way in, dropped a heavy cardboard box on the floor by the unsorted donations, and walked out again. He did this three more times, leaving the door swinging behind him, letting in strong gusts of wind and rain, and reinscribing a damp trail of rainwater on the carpeted floor. Then he was gone as abruptly as he had arrived.
Ashley had taken better care to protect the books from the rain than himself. The cardboard was soaked through, but the books inside had been wrapped in several layers of plastic sheeting. They were stacked upright, and had been fitted in without any attempt to force too many into a single space. They were all, without exception, worn, faded, and almost completely without interest. Paperback romances long since out of print, old text books, children’s encyclopedias. It was rather a relief, if I’m honest. I could just reach into the boxes, grab a book, give it a flick through, and place it on the “for sale” pile.
I was about halfway through the last box when my fingers brushed something that did not feel at all like paper. It was dense and yielding, and ever so slightly damp. I recoiled, shock and disgust crawling their prickling way up my arm. My fingers looked clean, but the ghost feeling of something sticky still clung to them.
My first thought that it was some nasty practical joke. That Ashley, stung by his mother’s willingness to give away his stock, had put something disgusting in there by way of relieving his feelings. But that would have been ridiculous- he was a grown man, for goodness sakes, not a slighted child. It was more likely that the plastic keeping the books wrapped up had slipped, and allowed the rain to seep in through the sides. That was the more likely explanation.
It seemed as though I was right when I looked into the box properly, and saw nothing there but more books. But when I reached in again, all I felt was rough, dry paper. Confused, I went through the contents more slowly, looking where I placed my hand and at the books I chose.
I didn’t feel it again until the fifth book I picked up, that same almost-damp feeling. It was broad and set in landscape, almost like a sketchbook. It was dense with pages all jammed together- dense and heavy. It flopped bonelessly in my hand, and I needed to support it from underneath before I could read the title.
Hymnal, it read. The gold letters gleamed wetly on the slick cover.
It appeared to be full of sheet music. No titles or lyrics, just scratched staves and notes that meandered up and down the lines as though drunk. The smell that rose from the pages as I turned them was odd and unpleasant. I wondered if the leather binding them hadn’t been properly cured. Those areas of page that weren’t covered in music were full of sketches, but so dense and overlapping that I couldn’t tell what they were supposed to be. And, I realised with an unpleasant start, the cover beneath my hands was warm, as though I was touching a live thing.
Suddenly, I’d had enough. I was sitting here, working myself up over an old, graffitied book for no good reason. I shut the thing hurriedly, and it snapped closed with a heavy slithering of pages. I caught the soft part of my forefinger on one of them, and a tiny bead of scarlet began to well from the wound. The stinging was welcome- it gave me something to focus on, mundane annoyance drowning out the confusion that had been threatening to become fear.
I dropped the book onto the discard pile. I couldn’t sell something like that, that much was obvious. Then I picked it up again, and dashed through the rain to the rubbish bins outside. I tossed it in, and followed it up with as much of the discard pile as I could bag up in one go, burying the thing underneath threadbare scarves, broken plastic dolls, and half used art supplies.
I felt a little better when it was done, but not much. Whatever those hymns were praising, I don’t think it was Our Lord.
The cut on my finger didn’t heal like it should. It stopped bleeding without any trouble, but the edges became raised, reddened and sensitive to the touch. I dabbed at it with antiseptic and did my best to put it out of my mind. I succeeded at first. I had plenty to keep me busy, both at church and at my workplace, and for a day or two, I completely forgot about it.
At least until it opened up again.
I don’t remember what caused it, or if anything caused it at all. Just that I was reaching for something, and there was the feeling of… unpeeling, almost, the cold feeling of fresh air on wet skin. I checked to see if the cut was bleeding again.
Instead of a cut, I found myself looking at a tiny, fully formed mouth.
The raised, reddened edges I had thought were a sign of infection had become minute lips. They were slightly parted, and behind them I could see the tiniest slivers of white. And behind that, a dark space where something wet shifted.
I didn’t look at it for long. Already I was reaching for the first aid kit, hastily covering the cut- the mouth- with a plaster. I was already convincing myself that what I’d just seen was some kind of infection I was too squeamish to look at, and that since I couldn’t feel any pain, I should probably go to the doctors, in case it was nerve damage or something. The impression of having seen a mouth rather than a cut was an unpleasant trick my mind had played on me, and one I didn’t feel like closely examining. I told myself I had imagined it.
I hadn’t, though. I could taste the soft fabric patch on the plaster.
I really did mean to go to the doctors. Mouth or no mouth, whatever was happening to the cut on my finger worried me. I even got as far as making an appointment. But the next day I went into work, and there was an accident involving a slippery patch of floor and a very, very sharp knife that I was carrying at the time. I ended up with a nasty slice parallel with the underside of my ribcage.
This time, it was obvious how quickly it stopped bleeding, how it was practically dry before I even changed the gauze once. How the scabs began to flake before I even touched them, leaving nothing but those raised, reddening edges around the cut itself.
I didn’t go to that doctor’s appointment. I don’t think it would have helped me if I had.
It took longer for the second cut to open, but when it did, I could stand in front of the mirror to properly see the flat, white, human teeth, and the tongue that moved behind them.
It didn’t feel alien. That’s what surprised me most. I was scared, of course I was scared, I was growing new bits, opening up in places that I shouldn’t- but that was just it. It was my body doing this, not some… weird infection or surgery. Whatever was happening, it felt like an extension of myself.
I could move them, I found. Not as consciously as I could my original mouth, the one in its proper position on my face, but sort of like moving a limb after it’s fallen asleep. It took concentration, like I was working through partial numbness. Like I needed to focus to wake them up.
I didn’t spend very long doing that, though. I would realise with a start that what I was doing wasn’t normal, it wasn’t sane. I would pull my shirt back down or re-plaster my finger with a feeling almost like shame. I wasn’t as scared as I should have been, and that in itself was somehow a lot more frightening.
I’m not clumsy. I can’t be, considering the sharp tools I have to handle at work. But I started to accumulate injuries. Innocuous things at first. Paper cuts from the prayer books during mass, scrapes from the edges of the metal benches at work. And then other things. Pushing down a door-handle would lay my palm open as though I’d been struck with a metal ruler. The pressure of my jacket across my shoulders would tear the skin. I woke in bed one morning to discover that the folded sheets around me had left cuts going from my hip to my collar bone.
Every single one of them bled, reddened, and opened.
The mouths started to become restless as their number grew. They tried to chew on the clothes I wore to cover them, and if I didn’t focus, they would let out soft, but audible moans or sighs. I tried to quiet them. I even tried feeding them, though I only did that once. It seemed to help, but the mangled sensation of swallowing with a throat that seemed to be lodged under my right kidney was so disorienting I couldn’t bring myself to do it again.
I hadn’t stopped going out altogether. I left the house less, certainly, but as uncertain and uncomfortable as my changing existence was, I didn’t want to give up the company of other people altogether. I get lonely easily.
So, one Friday, when when there was so little skin left under my clothes and gloves that no new mouths could easily form, I patched my face and neck with gauze, and went to take my place in the choir again.
Nobody really seemed to notice anything different about me. I had all the right stories lined up for when I was asked about what had happened to my face, but almost nobody did. A few condolences, a few jokes, and that was it. People apparently preferred to gossip about the death of Mrs Ashley, and how her James had stopped coming to church now, and how they had known his heart wasn’t in it all along.
It felt awful. There I was, standing in the middle of them, skin to skin almost, with the most fragile disguise imaginable hiding a secret that would ruin their perception of the world for good- and they were too wrapped up in their own smug assurance of their own piety to notice. I offered up a brief prayer for patience, but like all my prayers lately, I don’t think I was offering it to the God whose praises we’d all gathered to sing.
And when we raised our voices together for All Things Bright And Beautiful, and I opened my mouth to join in, and then opened my mouth again, and opened my mouth again, and opened my mouth again- I wasn’t singing praises to that God either.
I didn’t realise that the others had stopped at first. It wasn’t until I glanced to one side, and saw Julie Wright staring at me with her powerless mouth open and unmoving, that I realised I was singing in harmony with myself.
I broke off, suddenly embarrassed and frightened by the way that they were all looking at me. There was something like awe in their expressions, but there was something else there too. Something that shuddered and recoiled. I desperately tried to remember the words I’d been singing, if I had gotten them right. I had the horrible sense that I might have subverted something holy.
Adam Bromley was the one to break the silence.
“Well now. You never told us you were getting private training!”
And just like that, the spell was broken. The unexpressed disgust sank back beneath their faces, and the others took up the idea almost with relief. A beautiful voice, they told me, what trick did they teach me to make it resonate like that? I forced a smile and said something non-committal and when we took up the tune again, I was careful to sing only the words that were on the page in front of me.
My own relief was short-lived. When I got home, I found the skin I had left was being pulled apart by the restless movements of the mouths. Blood stained the underside of my shirt, and I couldn’t stop the moans and hissings any more than I could have controlled a spasm or a muscular tic.
I didn’t sleep that night, and called in sick to work the next day. I lay on the bed, and stared up at the ceiling, trying very hard not to move.
It wasn’t any use. My skin had become so fragile that even getting up and walking to the kitchen caused it to split, the blood barely having time to dry before the wound began to twitch and whisper. All my fascination was gone now, as were all my attempts to ignore what was happening. All I did was lie on the bed, and let myself slowly drown in my own body. I lived like that for a week.
When next Friday evening came, my entire body burst into song.
I writhed and moaned and hummed without will, without choice, throwing out snatches of hymn before discarding them as not what I wanted, not right. And for the first time, the indistinct murmurs and whispers grew louder, began to form words. Prayers that had been chewed out of shape, pleas for more, more mouths, more brothers and sisters, to come out of hiding and join the great curdling of flesh.
This went on for the entire night.
That was when I decided that I needed to do something. I’d let… whatever this was go on for too long, long beyond the point of saving myself. But I wanted to tell someone first. So I dragged myself to my computer, and searched as best I could. It’s difficult to type with only a confusion of tongues.
And that’s where you came in. You aren’t special. You were just the closest place that didn’t either ignore my emails, or reply with not so gentle suggestions that I see a psychologist.
I don’t think I’ll be leaving my home again, once I get back. I doubt I’ll even bother uncovering, although there’s no-one there to see me. For all that I wanted to let someone know, I don’t want to be seen.
The cupboard below the stairs locks from the inside. I can push the key out from underneath the crack in the door.
Whatever is happening to me, I won’t allow it come to fruition.
Post-statement follow-up: There wasn’t anyone under the stairs when I went to check. The lock on cupboard door was broken, and so was the one on the back door. Either Ms Ness was, um… successful in her attempts to… halt her transformation, and a housebreaker with some seriously questionable motives took what was- what was left of her. Or she wasn’t. And her resolve either waned or the situation was, um. Taken out of her hands. Or. Whatever she had instead of hands.
I wasn’t… going to record this. It’s not my job, strictly speaking, but I was reading some of the old statements, and this one just… sort of caught my eye. And I’ve seen the Archivist and some of the others do recordings, and it just looked so… I wanted to try it out. I’ll be taking the tape with me, though. None of the others need to know about this.

Princess Tutu episodes 14-end
Tumblr media
I watched the entire second half of the series in one day because I make good life choices
Previously on Princess Tutu Watch:
Okay I can get back to Tokyo Mew Mew now
+++++++++++++++++++
It was a lie, I could NOT
EPISODE, UH, FUCK……… 14! - The Raven
asdklsdhflhdl (google docs stop capitalizing my keysmashes) they’re bringing back “once upon a time there was a man who died”!!!!!! Honestly that might be one of my favorite lines in this whole show
Gotta love the sarcasm in “and they lived happily ever after”
The theme song…… it’s so good
Oh nooooooooooooooo
This scene is literally just the “I’ve got a headache that comes and goes” meme
Fakir you complete dork. You’re all dorks
“Princess Tutu and a crocodile are totally different” you tell ‘im, Mytho
Duck speaks so much more regularly than the other main characters? I mean, there’s Fakir over there like “Shall we go?” and Duck saying things like “I’m gonna be late!” and using “like” and “stuff”... I mean, I know this is the dub, but
Duck why are you using Fakir’s dumb excuses omg
Lilie is just the personification of my negative thoughts
BUT WHAT DID MYTHO TELL FAKIR
Awwwwwwww Duck, no
They’re in a terrifying Raven Dimension with like, ominous music and people wailing in the background and meanwhile Kraehe and the Raven are just having like, a normal conversation
Also, are the white feathers supposed to be like, what’s trapping the Raven there?
Duck please
Wait, Princess Tutu transformed on her own!
Episode 15 - Coppelia
Also, watching Fakir try and fail to stop Mytho from jumping out the window is Pain
Lilie you are a Strange Child
STEALTH DUCK RETURNS!
Oh no?? Fakir doesn’t want to get Mytho in trouble???
Tumblr media Tumblr media
alsdfksfh the entire student population is Here For The Drama
Duck don’t yell in the library
Fakir just doesn’t make good decisions
Tumblr media
Oooh that doesn’t look good
Sad Kraehe Theme Alert
You “just happened” to do a lot of things, Lilie
Omg Lilie “Want to just happen to go see?”
Rue just shows up to trash talk Fakir for a minute and then leaves
I say as if I’m not in So Much Pain
Yeah! Every single time Princess Tutu transformed in the first season, it was because Drosselmeyer said something, but now she’s transforming on her own!
Oh no Mytho
Also I like how Tutu doesn’t just flat-out say “you don’t actually love him” and instead is just like “how about you try doing things you enjoy with the guy you like instead of giving him Your Actual Heart”
Episode 16 - The Maiden’s Prayer
Wait is Angry Narrator back or did the other narrator just regain the heart shard of Withering Scorn?
Lilie isn’t even interested in the love triangle, she just wants Duck and Pike to fight
Tumblr media
Is that Goatette
“So pretty…. What? Oh yeah I meant the flowers of course haha” Duck
Tumblr media
Such a serious child
“Love only me, hate everyone else”/“The prince who loves me and me alone”
This child is amazing
It was such a good decision to give Fakir a little sister. A good decision for everyone involved
aslfsdjhklgdlghdjghfdklkdkalh Kraehe told him that Duck would suffer if she knew what was happening with Mytho so Fakir isn’t going to tell herrrrrrrrrr Fakir please don’t internalize that!! You are breaking my heart sir
Oh my god it wasn’t Goatette it was the sloth
*The Can Can plays loudly over a sloth just kinda hangin out*
Episode 17 - Crime and Punishment
This may or may not have been the last episode I watched the first time I watched this show?
Tumblr media
“Eyes of truth” huh?
This dumbass child
Femio, from the other side of the school grounds: “DID SOMEBODY SAY ‘PRINCE’????”
What the Fuck are you doing with your hands, kid
Why are you a cow
Honestly as over-the-top as Femio is he is also simultaneously the most realistic middle-schooler in this entire show
Oh my god he’s on probation
I’m sorry I’m just talking about Femio but he’s hilarious
Truly a Grade A Idiot
What is he even doing with his life
I’ve become Lilie
These characters have emotional crises over people saying the stupidest things and tbh I relate to that
Tumblr media
Oh dear!
The thing is, Femio would be really annoying in real life, but in a tv show he’s just amusing
Tumblr media
Rue’s FACE, she’s so done
I like how Duck can tell which building Rue’s in just by the amount of crows around it
Tbh all the students probably have noticed what’s going on, they just think it’s some kind of weird performance art thing. Wouldn’t be out of character for this school
Fakir and Uzura really are siblings, I love this
The best part about this episode is it’s this completely ridiculous person unintentionally getting in the middle of everybody’s emotional issues
“I feel kinda like something happened, and kinda like it didn’t” Duck you are absolutely correct
And of course the Aquarium is good once again
Episode 18 - The Wandering Knight
Incidentally, how old are these kiddos? We know Mytho is older than Duck, so Fakir and Rue probably are too?? But like, probably only by a year? Who even knows what their actual ages are
I mean, Duck is a duck so
Tumblr media
It’s! The trees from the opening!
I don’t know if I’ve asked this before, but why does Fakir have a horse?
Tumblr media
Oh my god Lilie
Can everybody STOP picking on Fakir for being afraid to die? He is 14, leave him alone
Ahiru is trying so hard to be helpful, give her a chance Fakir
Once again Rue shows up to get in a burn on Fakir and then leave
I swear every time the Aquarium plays in this show
Oh noooooooo Ruuuuueeeeeeee
Literally Protect All Of These Characters
Save These Children From Their Own Emotional Issues
FAKIR PLEASE
Pride is absolutely the worst feeling Mytho could get back right now?
“There’s something sinister going on that I’m not a part of!” And that really gets to you doesn’t it Dross. I bet it’s really… grinding your gears!!!
(why do I feel so proud of insulting a fictional character)
Episode 19 - A Midsummer Night’s Dream
Wow we really are starting this one off on a sinister note (it’s Drosselmeyer’s revenge on me for that pun)
Of course he can’t tell you, he doesn’t fuckin know what’s going on
Fakir please stop basing your entire identity around being a knight
Oh no, Mytho’s regained the heart shard of Basing Your Entire Identity Around Upholding A Role
I wonder if Hermia being tall is like, a meta Shakespeare joke, cause in the play Helena’s really tall and Hermia’s really short, but in every production I’ve seen it was the other way around
Rue stop projecting your insecurities onto your boyfriend
Ohhhhhhhh dear
Finally someone tells all the crows hanging around to shut up
Tumblr media
Oh my god she really is super tall
Or Ahiru’s just super short
I am learning so much about ballet mimes
Tumblr media
Cool bird shadows
Tumblr media
Whoa, different raven background. And the Raven isn’t speaking with him this time? What does it mean
On no, Tutu
Hahaha oh no
Aaahaha they’re the same
THEY EVEN DO THE SAME ARM-FLAILY THING
Episode 20 - The Forgotten Story
ALRIGHT, TIME FOR THE FAKIR’S SAD BACKSTORY EPISODE
Raetzel: *walks in*
Uzura: And where do you fit in the shipping chart, ma’am
Tumblr media Tumblr media
THIS is a High Quality Directatorial Decision
Oh no Duck. oh no she’s so earnest nooooo
It is just Extremely Wrong to see Mytho dancing to something besides Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy
Mr. Cat can hear the word “wedding” from three floors up
Oh my GOD they put broken heart stickers on the window
I mean, I say they but we all know it was Lilie
Again, Duck knows exactly where shit’s going down just because that’s where all the crows are
Oh no!
Everybody needs to stop giving Fakir shit Right Now. Everybody needs to stop thinking it’s a bad thing that Fakir didn’t fucking Die, and that includes Fakir OKAY????
I’ve been thinking… Raven Mytho keeps saying things like “people only want love because they want to be loved” and I wonder… if that was sort of his experience as a prince. Or maybe I’m just getting this mixed up with Utena lol. But it does seem like a genuine issue he has as opposed to just something he says to manipulate people. Hm.
Episode 21 - The Spinners
Every time the narrator says “once upon a time there was a man who died” I Will Flip
Duck tries to lean nonchalantly against a door, it goes about how you’d expect
Duck that’s not how writing works (ughgfjdghskjkgf my pain)
AW NO
Oh no Duck is too relatable
UUAAAAAA TREE GHOST TREE GHOST
“Follow my every order and be prepared to die if you should fail” it’s almost like you WANT me to hate you. FAKIR DOESN’T NEED THIS
See Duck agrees with me
PETITION FOR PEOPLE TO LEAVE FAKIR THE FUCK ALONE THAT MEANS YOU TREE GHOST
Ohshit it’s that old guy from the bookshop???
Uzura is NOT “unrelated”, obviously she is Fakir’s baby sister
“I’m just watching again” oh no Duck
Autor what the Fresh Heck are you doing to Fakir
YOU ARE NOT FINE?????????
Honestly Fakir needs to get in touch with his emotions, not get sleep deprived and hallucinate in a field
This tree is saying things Edel said??? Was Edel made from the wood of this tree?????? Oh my god???????????
Anyway that was Intense
Listen, Raven Mytho has real issues and you can fight me on this
Ah, I see Dross is practicing the time-honored authorial tradition of “If the Story Isn’t Working, Hit It With a Wrench”
Episode 22 - Crown of Stone
But who’s going to protect Fakir huh? Answer me that, Duck
Tumblr media
One big-ish happy familyyyyyyyyy
I needed this life advice tbh
Aaaaaah Uzura’s talking to Rue!
“Are you the Rue we’re worried about?” I love how she just included herself in that
Autor, I’m……. not sure you want the tree ghost cult to acknowledge you
Uhm, I’m pretty sure Autor doesn’t fit into the shipping chart and I think Uzura would agree with me
Ah fuck!!! Fakir turn around
Tumblr media
Wait it’s an owl on a grandfather clock?? Is that actually a thing? These watchnotes are coming full circle
“I want people to love me, but is it okay to just be loved?” yep, the prince is having issues
Autor, I’m pretty sure Ahiru is figuring all that out right now
And like, the Book Men totally know it too, so
Tumblr media
HOLY CRAP THIS SEQUENCE
AND THE MUSIC THE MUSIC IS PERFECT
SKLAFDJKVHFJK;JKLSdf;DSLKJFAKSDAKFJHFKLJJFGKLHGJFHSDLJ
I love this show
EPISODE 23 - Marionette
OH! OH! IT’S THE MUSIC EDEL ALWAYS PLAYED BUT SPED UP! That’s actually kinda creepy!
Anyway now I know why I’m so protective of Fakir, we’re both writers who can’t write anything
Oh noooooooooooo Rue
Oooooooooooh don’t like that
Ruuueeeeeeeeee please don’t stab your boyfriend we’ve been over this
Incidentally, hulu needs to quit it with these bogus commercial placements
Drosselmeyer: How dare you try to resolve your emotional problems!
Dross that’s called character development
Hahahaha joke’s on you Dross!
aaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I! LOVE! THEM!
No of course your heart is lovey-dovey Uzura! Your heart is the lovey-dovey-est!!!
Incidentally, Autor is That Guy who says just because you haven’t finished/published anything you’re not a Real Writer. And he is Wrong
Episode 24 - The Prince and the Raven
Okay, just from this title I know I won’t be able to handle this
THIS ISN’T EVEN THE PENULTIMATE EPISODE
YOU ARE HITTING ME WITH ONCE UPON A TIME THERE WAS A MAN WHO DIED RIGHT OUT OF THE GATE I CANNOT BELIEVE
Okay but and then this story explains all of Raven Mytho’s emotional issues as well???
*sigh* Autor……. Fakir literally just told you his motivation is to protect people and you’re still going on about controlling the fates of all mankind… are you sure you’re not Drosselmeyer’s direct descendent?
Rue don’t go into the crow building
Honestly I’m still dying over the fact that you can tell where things are happening purely based on which building all the crows are at today
Tiny Rue is breaking my heart
Tumblr media
UUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAAA TINY RUE IS DOING BALLET
Omg Rue in the beginner’s class!
Oh noooo Uzura’s saaaaad
I KNOW I’ve heard this songgggggggg
THAT WAS A BIT OF THE FOSSILS FROM CARNIVAL OF THE ANIMALS???
Okayokayokay so it’s not Carnival of the Animals but DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT IS it’s another piece by Saint-Saens and DO YOU KNOW what that piece is called????? fuckin Danse Macabre!!!!! I am immediately filled with a sense of foreboding!!!
The music choices in this show are going to destroy me one day
Tumblr media
HOLY CRAP????
I can’t believe so goddamn much happened in this episode???
Episode 25 - The Dying Swan
I’m not rrrrrrrrreadyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Not even the narrator’s obvious disappointment in Drosselmeyer can give me solace
Oh my god so is the Drosselmeyer we know just a character in Dead Drosselmeyer’s story?
I think it’s a testament to this story’s power that I’m having so many emotions about it even though I know what’s going to happen? Like, some stories, reading the summary is pretty much the same as hearing the story, but Princess Tutu is not one of those stories
Like I just overcame my social anxiety to ask my roommate to be quieter, that’s how good this story is
Aaaaaagh Rue’s change from saying “you love me” to saying “I love you” my HEART
Oh shoot! Mytho’s angry! I thought one of the gate heart shards might be anger
Oh my god Autor literally no one cares what TEA Drosselmeyer drank look at Fakir he’s so done
Tumblr media
Aaaaaaaa ohno
EVISCERATE HIM FAKIR
Holyshitholyshitholyshit
Okay but see the lake is outside the city so Dross just took some random normal duck and plunked her down in his fairytale town and that’s why like, a cat teacher seems weird to her because she’s not from inside the story
OH NO THEY’RE PLAYING THE SWAN BUT THIS TIME IT’S RUE
rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr fuck OFFFFFF
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh it’s the sword birds
excUSE you Dross, the knight has NOT “long been useless”
Episode 26 - Finale
I can’t believe after 9 years I’m finally going to finish watching this show
Okay it’s happening
It begins and ends with “once upon a time, there was a man who died”, the absolute most perfect first line in the history of first lines and you can fight me on this
Okay I’m already almost crying just from the theme song, like the Tchaikovsky fits perfectly into it? I’m gonna sing it
I’m just screaming???? They’re all in distress
BUT DUCK IS NOT GOING TO GIVE IN TO DISTRESS
RUE IS THE SWAN
DUCK DECIDES TO WRITE HER OWN STORY AND THE MUSIC FROM THE END OF THE THEME SONG STARTS PLAYING MY HEART
Tumblr media
I’M ACTUALLY CRYING
IT’S ALL THE PEOPLE SHE HELPED
THEY ARE PLAYING THE THEME THAT PLAYS WHEN DUCK IS HAPPY
FUCKING -- AND YOU HIT ME WITH ONCE UPON A TIME THERE WAS A MAN WHO DIED NOW
Tumblr media
LOOK! LOOK THE SCENERY OUTSIDE THE TOWN FADES IN
I watched it.
